Ischemic stroke is relatively rare in young patients,
and often not caused by atherosclerosis, but by other,
more difficult to diagnose diseases, like intracranial
dissections, cardioembolic stroke and vasculitis. In
this study, we aimed to demonstrate patterns of vessel
wall abnormalities in young stroke patients using 7T
intracranial vessel wall MRI. Our results show that in
this patient group with heterogeneous causes of ischemic
stroke, different patterns of vessel wall abnormalities
exist, which may serve as diagnostic marker for the
discrimination between the different causes of stroke in
young patients.
