The main goal of this study was to evaluate the treatment effect of primary angiitis of the central nervous system (PACNS) and secondary central nervous system vasculitis(CNSV) with high-resolution magnetic resonance vascular wall imaging. We measured 4 patients with PACNS and 10 patients with secondary CNSV using high resolution CUBE MRI. We found that high-resolution magnetic resonance vascular wall imaging can assess the treatment effect of PACNS and secondary CNSV. Therefore, CUBE MRI can be considered an effective tool in the evaluation of PACNS and secondary CNSV.
