Short acquisition times reduce motion artifacts and enable the study of acute stroke patients with moderate cooperation. Fast image reconstruction makes the results of MRA or PWI available within a few minutes, optimally including maps to operationally estimate the size of the ischemic core and putative penumbra [19]. Detectability and detection rate of acute hemispherical stroke are significantly higher with DWI than with computed tomography (CT). The advantage of a multiparametric MRI approach lies in the characterization of the lesion extension and of the stroke mechanism, thus providing a pathophysiological basis for rational decision-making.

7 MRI and MRA in a patient who sustained a fall show the “crescent sign” (white arrow) involving the right ICA at the skull base on axial T1-weighted imaging (a). The sagittal view nicely demonstrates the enlarged vascular structure with intramural thrombus (black arrows), and the residual lumen flow void coursing through the center (arrowhead). The corresponding gadolinium-enhanced MRA (c) shows the rapid tapering of the distal ICA with variable lumen size from the cervical loop to the vertical portion of the petrous carotid segment (white arrows) Noninvasive vascular imaging may be able to detect obvious AVFs, but catheter angiography remains the gold standard or evaluating these lesions.
