A, Example of symptomatic patient with a left-sided carotid artery stenosis of 99%. Before treatment, CBF and MTT show explicit differences between the right and left hemispheres with a higher CBF and a higher MTT in the right hemisphere in comparison with the left hemisphere. After CAS, both CBF and MTT show a symmetric pattern of perfusion. B, An example of a asymptomatic patient with a left-sided carotid artery stenosis of 95%. Before treatment, CBF and MTT show differences between the right and left hemisphere with a higher CBF and a higher MTT in the right hemisphere in comparison with the left hemisphere. However, this difference is not as clear as in the symptomatic patient. After CAS, both CBF and MTT show a symmetric pattern of perfusion.
