Figure 1 Cerebral Ischemia on Sequential DWMRI
Flowchart showing new cerebral ischemic foci at time points t
1 and t
2 after CAS, as well as additional foci at t
2 in 3 patients who already had cerebral ischemic foci at t
1. CAS = carotid artery stenting; DWMRI = diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging.
