Figure 5

Multicontrast CMR and T2 map of an occlusive type VI plaque in the right internal carotid artery. Multicontrast CMR reveals the presence of recent IPH, characterized by iso/hyper-intensity on TOF, T1W and T2W images compared to the sternocleidomastoid muscle (SM). The T2 map and its segmentation show a large region with long T2 values, corresponding to recent IPH, surrounded by fibrous tissue. Due to the borderline quality of multicontrast CMR, it was not possible to co-register the images and segment the vessel wall, therefore a circle was manually placed to indicate the occluded artery.
