Brain MRI demonstrates a T1WI hypointense (A) and T2WI hyperintense (B) focus in the left side of the pons (arrow), with high signal intensity on both DWI (C) and ADC (D) (due to T2 shine through effect, no...
The MCA is the most common artery involved in stroke (seeImages.Left MCA Territory Infarction and Right-Sided MDA 'Cord Sign' Harbingering Acute Infection). The MCA is divided into 4 segments (M1, M2, M3, and M4) and supplies a large area of the lateral surface of the brain, part of...
Ischemic stroke is an acute neurological condition caused by impaired cerebral blood flow (e.g., vascular occlusion or systemic hypoperfusion). The most important risk factors are chronic systemic ...
Stroke remains the third most important cause of mortality in industrialized countries; this has prompted research for improvements in both diagnostic and
MRI brain demonstrated posterior fossa predominant leptomeningeal disease, hydrocephalus, and left MCA territory infarct (Figure 1). MRI spine demonstrated diffuse leptomeningeal enhancement, cervical T2-hyperintense intramedullary lesion, and plaque-like intradural mass (Figure 2). CSF studies were bland;...

This CT image shows a large left MCA distribution stroke with some left-to-right shift. Differential diagnosis There are only a few other clinical conditions that can mimic an acute stroke. These conditions include seizure, migraine, hypoglycemia and acute ...
Focal ischemic stroke was induced in 16-week-old, male C57BL/6 J mice by 60-min occlusion of the left MCA and senicapoc administration was started following the first neurological deficit scoring at 12 h after reperfusion and then continued twice daily until evaluation of infarct area using ...
ASPECTS is not the same as the stroke core volume. In some studies, great variability between specific ASPECTS grade and the cerebral blood volume (CBV) on CTP has been found [36,37]. The explanation is straightforward as each region of the MCA territory in ASPECTS evaluation has a different...
Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is characterized by the sudden loss of blood circulation to an area of the brain, typically in a vascular territory, resulting in a corresponding loss of neurologic function. Also previously called cerebrovascular accident (CV
