Evaluation of the effect of statin treatment on intracranial atherosclerotic plaques using magnetic resonance vessel wall imaging: a case series
VW-MRI can monitor the in-situ changes of plaques after lipid-lowering therapy with statins, provide key information that is difficult to reflect in systemic serological lipid indices like LDL-C, and help identify cases that are not responsive to current anti-lipid therapy.
