Official Title: High-resolution Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Intracranial Atherosclerotic Plaques in Ischemic Stroke (HRMRI-ICAS): a Prospective, Multicenter Cohort Study
Brief Summary:
Intracranial atherosclerotic disease is the most common cause of ischemic stroke in Asia, also in China.Currently, despite vascular recanalization therapy, statins are one of the main drug choices for treating atherosclerotic plaque.High resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HRMRI) can accurately assess the status of intracranial and extracranial arterial plaque, and has high consistency with histopathology.Thus, HRMRI technology has been widely used to monitor the efficacy of drug treatment for atherosclerotic…
