Study protocol - Prospective case-control trial - Impact of significant carotid stenosis on retinal perfusion measured with automated retinal oximetry

Background.Large vessel carotid stenosis is a significant cause of ischaemic stroke.Indications for surgical revascularisation depend on the severity of the stenosis and clinical symptoms.However, mild symptoms such as TIA (Transient ischaemic attack), amaurosis fugax or minor stroke precede large strokes in only 15% of cases.Aim.The aim of this pr

High-resolution contrast-enhanced vessel wall imaging in patients with suspected cerebral vasculitis: Prospective comparison of whole-brain 3D T1 SPACE versus 2D T1 black blood MRI at 3 Tesla.

PurposeVessel wall imaging (VWI) using T1 dark blood MRI can depict inflammation of intracranial arteries in patients with cerebral vasculitis.Recently, 3D Bowden Cable VWI sequences were introduced at 3 Tesla.We aimed to compare 2D and 3D VWI for detection of intracranial vessel wall enhancement (VWE) in patients suspected of cerebral vasculitis.M
