Figure 1
Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain, (a) prethrombolysis diffusion-weighted image (DWI) shows brain infarct in the right MCA territory, (b) prethrombolysis Perfusion-weighted image (PWI) shows right brain hemisphere with perfusion defect, (c) prethrombolysis Magnetic resonance Angiography (MRA) shows absence of blood flow in the right MCA, (d) postthrombolysis DWI shows no significant interval changes in brain parenchyma, and (e) postthrombolysis MRA with patent right MCA.
