Morphologic characteristics of severe basilar artery atherosclerotic stenosis on 3D high-resolution MRI

Abstract Background Two-dimensional high-resolution MRI (2D HRMRI) faces many technical challenges for fully assessing morphologic characteristics of inherent tortuous basilar arteries. Our aim was to investigate remodeling mechanisms and plaque distribution in symptomatic patients with basilar arte...
