Journal of Vascular Diseases, Volume 4, Issue 2

June 2025 - 12 articles

Cover Story: We present the cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) and time shift (TS) maps of twenty patients with asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis. Blood-oxygenation-level-dependent magnetic resonance imaging was acquired at rest and processed using a specific approach to provide such information. Patients presented reduced CVR and increased TS in the distal parts of the brain vascular territories. Individual CVR and TS values varied more within the patient group than in the control group. Such individual variability may help identify patients at a higher risk of stroke and who are eligible for intervention. View this paper
