Focal Hypoperfusion on Baseline Perfusion-Weighted MRI and the Risk of Subsequent Cerebrovascular Events in Patients With TIA
Focal hypoperfusion on acute PWI MRI was found in 1 in 5 patients with TIA. It was associated with a higher incidence of AIS during long-term follow-up, especially when within the expected TIA territory. Further research is needed to clarify the predictive value of focal hypoperfusion in relation to the incidence of AIS after TIA and to explore potential therapeutic implications.
