Figures & Tables

Figure 1.

Internal carotid artery occlusion on neck magnetic resonance angiography (arrow).

Figure 2.

Right internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion (A) on magnetic resonance angiography and (B) on transcranial color-coded Doppler. Arrow: absent ICA

Figure 3.

(A) Blunted middle cerebral artery signal at 49-mm depth (baseline on 8.09.2012) and (B) normal waveform with straight systolic upstroke (post-recanalization on 9.04.2012).

Figure 4.

(A) Right internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion longitudinal view, (B) cross-sectional view (white arrow: absent color Doppler signal of the ICA), (C) ICA spectra waveform (high-resistance spikes to/from waveforms in the ICA), and (D) high-resistance waveform in the common carotid artery.

Figure 5.

(A) Internal carotid artery (ICA) recanalization longitudinal view (color Doppler signal present in ICA), (B) cross-sectional view (color Doppler signal present in ICA), (C) ICA spectra waveform (low-resistance waveform in the ICA), and (D) common carotid artery normal waveform.

Figure 6.
