%X Internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis can lead to cerebral hypoperfusion and is a common cause of stroke. As susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) has been used for penumbra imaging in acute ischemic stroke, we aimed at analyzing hypoperfusion using SWI in patients with ICA stenosis.Clinical characteristics, asymmetric cortical vessel sign (more and/or larger, hypointense asymmetric cortical vessels) on SWI, Doppler sonography results and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) lesion volume were retrospectively analyzed in patients with ICA stenosis. In a subgroup of patients, volume of prolonged time to peak and volume of prolonged time to peak of the residue curve (Tmax) were measured as reference standard. Outcome was assessed as modified Rankin score at discharge.104 patients were included. Median age was 72 and median degree of stenosis 70
