Abstract TP222: Frequency of Intracranial Arterial Imaging and its Yield in Consecutive Patients with Non-lacunar Cryptogenic Ischemic Stroke: ESUS Global Registry
Abstract
Background: Atherosclerotic stenosis of large IC arteries is an important cause of stroke. The prevalence of ICS in stroke population differs by ethnicity.We report the frequency of ICS among a global sample of patients with non-lacunar cryptogenic ischemic stroke (NLCIS) who did not have another identifiable cause for stroke i.e. cardioembolic, extracranial LAD, or other specific causes.
