Large vessel infarcts and small vessel infarcts. A large vessel infarct was defined as an infarct in a vascular territory extending to the cortex or a subcortical infarct larger than 1.5 cm in size. Large vessel infarcts in left frontal and parietal regions are illustrated by arrows (A). A small vessel infarct was defined as an infarct in subcortical region which is high signal on T2-weighted (B) and low signal on T1-weighted images (C) and was between 3 mm and 1.5 cm in size. A small vessel infarct in the left periventricular white matter is illustrated by arrows (B and C).
