| Abstract | Background This study characterized vessel wall imaging (VWI) features of Moyamoya disease (MMD) in a predominantly adult population at a North American center. Methods Consecutive patients with VWI were included. Twelve arterial segments were analyzed for wall thickening, degree and pattern of contrast enhancement, and remodeling. Results Overall, 286 segments were evaluated in 24 patients (mean age = 36.0 years [range = 1–58]). Of 172 affected segments, 163 (95%) demonstrated negative remodeling. Complete vessel wall obliteration was most frequent in the proximal M1 (17/48, 35%). Affected segments enhanced in 72/172 (42%) (n = 15 for grade II; n = 54 for concentric and n = 18 for eccentric); 20 of 24 (83%) patients had at least one enhancing segment. Both enhancing and non-enhancing segments were present in 19/20 (95%) patients. Vessel wall enhancement was most common in the proximal segments and correlated to the degree of stenosis (p < 0.001), and outer wall diameter (p < 0.001), but not disease duration (p = 0.922) or Suzuki score (p = 0.477). Wall thickening was present in 82/172 (48%) affected segments and was associated with contrast enhancement (p < 0.001), degree of stenosis (p < 0.001), and smaller outer wall diameter (p = 0.004). Conclusion This study presents VWI findings in North American patients with MMD. Negative remodeling was the most common finding. Most patients had both enhancing and non-enhancing abnormal segments. Vessel wall enhancement was most common in proximal segments, variable in pattern or degree and was correlated to the degree of stenosis and smaller outer wall diameter. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
