| Popis: | Internal carotid-artery stenosis (ICAS) causes complex and not yet well understood physiological impairments. We present preliminary data from an ongoing clinical study in ICAS patients and healthy, age-matched participants. The major aims were to evaluate the reliability of a multimodal MRI-protocol and investigate physiological changes. For ICAS patients, regionally impaired vascular-reactivity as well as hypo-perfusion were found. In accordance with literature, we did not find ICAS-induced changes in oxygen extraction on group level. The presented preliminary results thus imply successful application of multimodal MRI methods and are highly promising with respect to gaining a deeper insight into ICAS-related physiological changes. |
