A flow-diverter (FD) device is a well-established tool for the treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms. Time-of-flight (TOF) MR angiography (MRA) is widely used for postoperative assessment after the treatment with FD; however, it cannot fully visualize intra-aneurysmal and intrastent flow signals due to the magnetic susceptibility from the FD. Recently, the utility of MRA with ultra-short TE (UTE) sequence and arterial spin labeling technique in assessing the therapeutic efficacy of intracranial aneurysms treated with metallic devices has been reported, but long image acquisition time is one of the drawbacks of this method. Herein, we introduce a novel UTE MRA using the subtraction method that enables the reduction in susceptibility artifacts with a short image acquisition time.

The clinical manifestation of intracranial mycotic aneurysms (ICMAs), which are rare but carry high risks of rupture and early mortality, remains poorly understood. We present a case of an ICMA that rapidly developed and ruptured after the diagnosis of meningitis caused by (), which rarely causes bacterial meningitis. A 54-year-old man presented with a headache that worsened on coughing, without altered consciousness or vomiting.

Purpose: Although both accessory middle cerebral artery (MCA) of distal origin and anterior communicating artery (ACoA) duplication are not rare anatomical variations, their combination is extremely rare and there are only a few reports of such combinations.
Methods: We report a case of distal origin accessory MCA associated with ACoA duplication diagnosed by magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).
Results: A 63-year-old man visited another hospital for screening examinations for cerebrovascular disease.

Objectives: To evaluate the prevalence and predictors of ischemic lesions on thin-slice DWI (2 mm) in endovascular treatments for unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIA), particularly explore the potential relationship with pathway plaques.
Methods: Participants eligible for endovascular treatments with UIA at a national stroke center between March 2023 and August 2023 were prospectively enrolled. All participants performed thin-slice DWI (slice thickness of 2 mm) before and after procedures.
