Association between pouch morphology, cardiovascular risk factors and ischemic brain lesions in patients with left-sided septal pouches

Left atrial outpouching structures such as left atrial diverticula (LADs) and left-sided septal pouches (LSSPs) might be a source of cryptogenic stroke. This imaging study evaluates the association between pouch morphology, patient comorbidities and ischemic brain lesions (IBLs).
