Infarction Distribution Pattern in Acute Stroke May Predict the Extent of Leptomeningeal Collaterals.

Infarction Distribution Pattern in Acute Stroke May Predict the Extent of Leptomeningeal Collaterals.

The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the distribution pattern of early ischemic changes in the initial MRI allows a practical method for estimating leptomeningeal collateralization in acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Seventy-four patients with AIS underwent MRI followed by conventional angiogram...
