脑卒中是严重威胁人类健康特别是中老年人健康的常见病,具有发病率、致残率、病死率高的特点,给社会和家庭带来沉重负担.据报道,亚洲人群中40%以上的缺血性卒中是由颅内动脉病变引起[1].其中颅内动脉粥样硬化斑块所导致的管腔狭窄和易损斑块破裂、血栓形成导致管腔闭塞引起的缺血性卒中是最常见的病因.通过影像学方法研究颅内动脉易损斑块破裂机制、早期检测易损斑块,可对缺血性脑卒中患者进行风险评估,有效指导临床治疗[2].因此,笔者对近年来文献报道的颅内动脉易损性粥样硬化斑块的多模态MRI研究进行综述. 相似文献

现已证实,大多数缺血性脑血管病的发作与动脉粥样硬化有关,是由于颈动脉分叉处的动脉粥样硬化斑块栓子脱落或颅内动脉栓塞或颈内动脉狭窄、闭塞所致的低灌注引起。本研究对72例脑梗死患者颈动脉颅外段进行了超声多普勒检测,旨在探讨脑梗死患者颈动脉硬化斑块数量、部位、狭窄程度,为临床诊断及治疗提供依据。 相似文献

目的利用3.0 T高分辨力MR成像(HRMRI)技术分析缺血性卒中病人颅内责任动脉斑块特征,并探讨颅内动脉不稳定斑块的临床相关危险因素。方法共纳入49例缺血性脑卒中病人行颅内动脉HRMRI检查,男35例,女14例,年龄31~81岁,平均年龄(60.73±12.4)岁。根据病人斑块与缺血区责任动脉的关系分为责任动脉斑块组和非责任动脉斑块组,分析2组病人的HRMRI特征。根据斑块的强化程度分为明显强化组和非明显强化组,分析斑块强化程度与临床相关危险因素的关系。计数资料采用χ2检验,计量资料采用t检验进行统计学分析。结果 49例病人共196处斑块,其中责任动脉斑块70处(35.7%),非责任动脉斑块126处(64.3%);2组间的管腔狭窄程度、斑块明显强化的比例等差异有统计学意义(P0.001),责任动脉斑块所致的管腔狭窄程度更为严重、明显强化的比例更高(P0.001)。明显强化组与非明显强化组之间的年龄、性别、高血压、糖尿病、吸烟史、既往卒中史及家族史差异均无统计学意义。非明显强化组的低密度脂蛋白/高密度脂蛋白(LDL/HDL)比值低于明显强化组(分别为1.95±0.62和2.53±0.94,P=0.048)。结论颅内动脉粥样硬化斑块的强化与缺血性卒中事件的发生密切相关。斑块的强化程度能够反映斑块的稳定性。颅内动脉粥样硬化常见的危险因素并不能完全反映斑块的稳定性,LDL/HDL比值升高有可能作为不稳定斑块的预测因子。 相似文献

Purpose
High resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HRMRI) has been used as an imaging modality to depict the intracranial artery wall. The aim of this study was to compare images of the vessel wall between symptomatic and asymptomatic atherosclerotic plaques of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) using HRMRI.Materials and methods
From September 2009 to August 2010 we prospectively screened consecutive patients for MCA stenosis using time-of-flight (TOF) MR angiography. We studied 14 patients with symptomatic MCA stenosis and 16 patients with asymptomatic MCA stenosis. The HRMRI protocol included three different scans: T1-, T2-, and proton density (PD)-weighted black blood MRI. The cross-sectional images of the MCA wall on HRMRI were compared between the two groups based on the degree of stenosis, remodeling ratio, outward or inward remodeling, plaque signal intensity, plaque surface irregularity, and presence of an intact inner wall.Results
The degree of MCA stenosis and the ratio of plaque thickening to patent lumen in the symptomatic group were significantly higher than in the asymptomatic group. Outward remodeling of the stenotic area in symptomatic group was significantly higher than that seen in the asymptomatic group, and the reverse was true for inward remodeling of the stenotic area (it was significantly higher in the asymptomatic group compared to the symptomatic group). T2- and PD-weighted high signal foci, eccentric wall thickening, and plaque volume in the stenotic area were all similar between the two groups.Conclusions
HRMRI has the potential to distinguish between atherosclerotic plaques in symptomatic and asymptomatic MCA stenoses. 相似文献14.

OBJECTIVE: Risk assessment based on plaque vulnerability would be valuable in the management of asymptomatic carotid stenosis. The purpose of this study was to compare plaque morphology in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients with significant extracranial carotid artery stenosis using MDCT angiography. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We identified 31 patients with greater than 60% carotid artery stenosis on MDCT angiography using the criteria of the North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial Collaborators. We analyzed plaque density by blinded review in Hounsfield units in the atherosclerotic plaques of 15 symptomatic and 21 asymptomatic stenotic vessels for classification as soft, intermediate, or calcified. Data were analyzed using multiple logistic regression. RESULTS: Even with age, traditional cardiovascular risk factors, and treatment taken into account, we found that calcified plaques were 21 times less likely to be symptomatic than noncalcified plaques (95% confidence interval for odds ratio, 0.003, 0.749; p = 0.030). No significant predictive value was found between soft (p = 0.23) or intermediate (p = 0.18) plaque morphology for the occurrence of symptoms. CONCLUSION: MDCT angiography may help risk-stratify patients with asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis. Extracranial carotid artery calcified plaques causing stenosis are significantly less likely to be symptomatic and thus may be more stable than noncalcified plaques. This finding may have implications for the interpretation of calcification of atherosclerotic plaque in other vascular beds. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:High-resolution MR imaging can depict intracranial arterial atherosclerotic plaques. Our aim was to evaluate the relationship between the degree of enhancement of MCA plaques on contrast-enhanced high-resolution MR imaging and ischemic stroke and stenosis severity.MATERIALS AND METHODS:This study enrolled 36 patients diagnosed with moderate-to-severe atherosclerotic MCA stenosis. A contrast-enhanced T1-weighted volume isotropic turbo spin-echo acquisition sequence was acquired for assessing plaque enhancement. Plaque-to-CSF contrast ratio was calculated after the signal intensity of plaques at the stenotic segment was measured. Univariate comparison and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed for symptomatic and asymptomatic groups to assess the relationship between symptomatic stenosis and independent variables, including plaque-to-CSF contrast ratio, degree of stenosis, and clinical risk factors. Plaque-to-CSF contrast ratio was compared between the moderate and severe stenosis groups.RESULTS:Twenty-one patients had symptomatic MCA stenosis, and 15 had asymptomatic stenosis. The plaque-to-CSF contrast ratio was significantly higher in the symptomatic group than in the asymptomatic group (63.6 ± 10.6% versus 54.1 ± 13.5%, respectively; P < .05). The degree of stenosis also differed significantly between the 2 groups (P < .05). Multivariate analysis revealed that the degree of stenosis was the only independent predictor of ischemic stroke symptoms. The plaque-to-CSF contrast ratio of severe stenosis was significantly higher than that of moderate stenosis (66.8 ± 8.7% versus 55.9 ± 12.8%, respectively; P < .05).CONCLUSIONS:Plaque enhancement was significantly higher in patients with symptomatic plaques and may have been affected by the degree of stenosis. A difference in plaque enhancement according to the degree of stenosis has implications for understanding the development of intracranial atherosclerotic plaques.Intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) is now considered the most common cause of ischemic stroke worldwide.1,2 It is a challenge for many clinicians to assess vulnerable regions of intracranial artery stenosis by using in vivo methods. As a result, there has been a recent increase in interest in techniques to depict the state of the intracranial artery wall by using high-resolution MR imaging (HR-MRI) with a high magnetic field.Inflammation increases vulnerability to plaque rupture by facilitating neovascularization within the plaque and increasing endothelial permeability. Strong contrast enhancement of arterial plaques on MR imaging suggests the presence of a vascular supply and increased endothelial permeability, which facilitate the entry of contrast agents from the blood plasma.3–6 Several studies have shown that gadolinium (Gd) enhancement of extracranial carotid plaques on MR imaging is associated with plaque neovascularization or increased levels of serum inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein.7–10 An association between carotid plaque enhancement and clinical symptoms has been observed in several recent investigations by using Gd-enhanced MR imaging.9,11In contrast to the numerous investigations that have been performed on the carotid artery, only a few studies performed on a small number of patients have focused on the clinical significance of Gd enhancement of plaques in the setting of ICAD.12–14 These studies identified a significant association between plaque enhancement on ICAD and ischemic events. However, there is some debate about whether contrast enhancement is a good predictor of intracranial stenosis in ischemic stroke. Klein et al15 expressed doubt about the relationship between plaque enhancement and stroke because they found stationary enhancement of basilar plaques regardless of the time elapsed after an acute event.Several factors are known to be related to ischemic stroke in the territory of the stenotic segment.16,17 In particular, the severity of stenosis is a strong predictor of subsequent stroke in the territory of the symptomatic stenotic artery. To assess whether Gd enhancement of plaques at the stenotic segment is valuable as a predictor of ischemic stroke, an unbiased assessment of the influence of other independent factors, including the degree of stenosis, should be undertaken. Thus, the purpose of this study was to evaluate whether Gd enhancement of plaques in ICAD is associated with clinical symptoms, independent of other predictive factors for ischemic stroke risk. 相似文献
