Research Progress of 7.0T Ultra-High Field MRI in Evaluating the Relationship Between Lenticulostriate Arterys Lesions and Stroke Related Diseases / 中国医学影像学杂志

ABSTRACT

The lenticulostriate arterys(LSAs)is an important intracranial perforating artery,which is located in the basal ganglia region and the deep nucleus.LSAs lesions will lead to microcirculation disorders in the corresponding blood supply area,which is an important risk factor for stroke.Early effective detection of LSAs lesions to clarify the classification and etiology of stroke,and effective prediction of adverse events has become an urgent problem to be solved.At present,due to the extremely slender diameter and tortuous course of LSAs,the equipment and technology in clinical have not achieved a clear and comprehensive display of the LSAs.With the development of 7.0T ultra-high field MRI,it has become the best method for non-invasive diagnosis of LSAs.This paper aims to summarize the research progress of LSAs and stroke related diseases by 7.0T ultra-high field MRI.
