Quantifying Intracranial Internal Carotid Artery Stenosis on MR Angiography [ADULT BRAIN]
CONCLUSIONS:
There is a strong linear relationship between the narrowest lumen diameter of the intracranial ICA and percentage stenosis. Our results suggest that a single lumen diameter measurement on MRA allows accurate estimation of Warfarin-Aspirin Symptomatic Intracranial Disease stenosis, which may affect risk stratification and treatment decisions.
