NCT ID NCT05515874
First seen Apr 21, 2026 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tested new MRI methods to see if they can better predict stroke risk in people with intracranial atherosclerosis (narrowing of brain arteries). Researchers measured how well blood flow changes in response to carbon dioxide, which may indicate areas at higher risk. The study involved 33 adults and aimed to improve treatment planning by identifying which patients need more aggressive care.
