Primary stroke mechanism identification helps predict recurrent stroke risk

In medically treated symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (sICAS) patients, considering artery-to-artery embolism (AAE) rather than hypoperfusion as the stroke mechanism for cortical borderzone (CBZ) infarcts could better predict early recurrent stroke in the same territory (SIT), a study by the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) has found.
