Interictal Hyperperfusion in the Higher Visual Cortex in Patients With Episodic Migraine.

CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that extrastriate brain regions probably involved in cortical spreading depression are associated with CBF changes in the interictal state. We conclude that ASL-MRI is a sensitive method to identify local neuro-functional abnormalities in CBF in patients with EM in the interictal state.
