Summary

Optimizing the MRI protocol in acute ischemic stroke remains a challenging issue. In this field, susceptibility-weighted sequences have proved their superiority over T2. Besides the strengthened susceptibility effect, enhanced susceptibility-weighted angiography (eSWAN) sequence provides also a time-of-flight (TOF) effect, allowing the exploration of the intracranial arterial circulation. The objective of this study is to compare eSWAN and 3D TOF, considered as the reference, in the detection of arterial occlusion in acute stroke.
