This study used high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HRMRI) to explore plaque characteristics of young adults with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (sICAS). Compared with old patients, young patients with sICAS have a smaller Maximum wall thickness and a greater ability to reconstruct, and are more prone to positive remodeling, which may cover up some patients with atherosclerotic stenosis. The results show great clinical importance for a better understanding of youth intracranial arterial plaque features and highlights the importance of HRMRI.
