First seen Apr 25, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study looked at people with narrowed or blocked arteries in the back of the brain, which can cause strokes or mini-strokes. Researchers used MRI scans to measure blood flow and see if those with low flow had a higher chance of another stroke. The goal was to better understand who is at greatest risk, not to test a new treatment.
