Different risk factor profiles between silent brain infarction and symptomatic lacunar infarction.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Assessing collateral status is important in acute ischemic stroke. The purpose of this study was to compare multiphasic perfusion computed tomography (MPCT) with digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in predicting leptomeningeal collateral flow in acute middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarction. METHODS:Conse...
