Relationship between the intravascular enhancement sign on three-dimensional T1-weighted turbo spin echo and intraluminal thrombus in middle cerebral artery atherosclerosis

To investigate the association between the intravascular enhancement sign (IVES) and intraluminal thrombus (ILT) detected by high-resolution magnetic resonance vessel wall imaging (HR-VWI) in patients with middle cerebral artery (MCA) atherosclerosis.
