Evaluation of vessel-wall contrast-enhancement on high-resolution MRI in European patients with Moyamoya disease.

Objectives: Data regarding MR vessel-wall imaging (VWI) in patients with Moyamoya disease (MMD) is sparse, particularly in non-asian cohorts. We contribute data regarding the frequency of vessel wall contrast-enhancement (VW-CE) and its potential clinical significance in a European patient group.

Materials And Methods: Patients with a diagnosis of MMD who were examined by VWI were included in the study.
