A recent study conducted by researchers at Capital Medical University explores the association between the morphology of lenticulostriate arteries (LSAs) and parental atheromatous disease (PAD) with single subcortical infarction (SSI). The study also investigates whether LSAs are correlated with proximal plaque features in asymptomatic PAD. The findings suggest that the length, tortuosity, and dilation of LSAs, as well as the normalized wall index, are associated with large SSIs. Additionally, plaque features in asymptomatic PAD are correlated with the morphologic features of LSAs. Further research is needed to better understand these associations.
