High-resolution Intracranial Vessel Wall Imaging in Monitoring Treatment Response in Primary CNS Angiitis

Conclusions: Our report illustrates the utility of HR-VWI in diagnosing a case of PCNS angiitis through the demonstration of a vasculitic pattern of mural enhancement. Furthermore, it has provided evidence of disease response to treatment, assisting us in modifying treatment accordingly. Tracking disease activity and response to treatment in cases of central nervous system vasculitis can be another important use of HR-VWI in clinical practice besides assisting in establishing the diagnosis.
