The aim of this study was to validate whether preoperative QSM-based OEF (OEFQSM) map at 7T could predict the development of postoperative hyperperfusion (HP) after carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in patients with internal carotid artery stenosis. In quantitative assessment, OEFQSM was significantly higher in the presence group than that in the absence group of HP. Receiver operating characteristic analysis showed the OEFQSM was a good indicator for predicting the development of HP after CEA when the suitable cut-off value. Finally, the present study demonstrated that preoperative OEFQSM map at 7T can identify patients at risk for HP after CEA.
