The examples of plaque enhancement grade and intraplaque hemorrhage on hrMRI. The first example is a visualization from the basilar artery using T1WI and CE‐T1WI at the most stenotic site, which includes plaque (red arrow) and the lumen (red star) with the enhancement grade gradually increasing from 0 to 2. The second case shows the hyperintensity on T1WI at the most stenotic site indicating intraplaque hemorrhage at the basilar artery, including plaque (red arrow) and the lumen (red star).
