Abstrakt: The gold standard of diagnosis is magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) including diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) that shows the focal brain involvement in the territory of the affected artery [[1]]. The use of CT and MRI imaging detected ischemia in the left MCA territory that is the most common localization of the infarction in PAIS [[1]]. Noncontrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT), CT angiography, CT perfusion (CTP) and MRI including DWI confirmed acute ischemic stroke affecting the left frontal and temporal lobes due to the cranial M2 branch of the left MCA occlusion (Figs.
