An example of IPH missed on both CE- and TOF-MRA. Reconstructed axial mask (A), postcontrast (B), and TOF-MRA (C) images in matched locations transversely through a carotid plaque show no hyperintense signal intensity to suggest IPH (asterisk indicates the lumen). The corresponding CEA specimen section stained with Movat pentachrome demonstrates an attenuated fibrin network. A high-power view (E) of a region of necrotic core (box, D) shows scattered erythrocytes (arrow, E).
