EP 74. Comparison of freehand B-mode and power-mode 3D ultrasound for visualisation and grading of internal carotid artery stenosis
Currently, colour-coded duplex sonography (2D-CDS) is clinical standard for detection and grading of ICAS (1,2) as a relevant risk factor for ischaemic stroke (3,4). Unlike angiographic imaging modalities, 2D-CDS assesses ICAS by its haemodynamic effects rather than luminal changes1. Therefore, aim of this study was to evaluate freehand 3D ultrasound (3DUS) for direct visualisation and quantification of ICAS.

45. Patient presenting with transient phosphenes and headache: A case of fibromuscular dysplasia
Fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD), is a nonatherosclerotic, noninflammatory vascular disease commonly affecting the renal, extracranial carotid and vertebral arteries (VA). Etiology remains unknown. Clinical presentation is determined by distribution of arteries affected. Carotid artery involvement is associated with headache, TIA, stroke, pulsatile tinnitus, or may be asymptomatic. Treatment is being recommended in symptomatic cases. A 49-year-old Caucasian woman, was presented to our emergency department for transient phosphenes in right eye, followed by front-temporal headache. Cranial CT was normal, cervical duplex ultraso...

Novel EEG pattern associated with impaired cerebrovascular reserve in Moyamoya disease
Moyamoya disease is a cerebral vasculopathy that predisposes patients to stroke. Progressive narrowing of the intracranial internal carotid arteries and their proximal branches leads to the development of fragile compensatory collateral vasculature, giving rise to the characteristic “puff-of-smoke” appearance seen on angiography ().
