The characteristics of plaque that ultimately lead to different subcortical infarctions remain unclear. We explored the differences in plaque characteristics between patients with small subcortical infarction (SSI) and large subcortical infarction (LSI) of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) using high-resolution magnetic resonance vessel wall imaging (HR-MRVWI).
