Vasospasm secondary to subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is responsible for severe ischemic complications. Although effective, angioplasty must be performed at a very early stage to produce any clinical recovery. Diagnostic investigations to assess arterial narrowing (transcranial Doppler, angiography) or cerebral perfusion (xenon CT, single-photon emission CT) do not provide evidence of the extent of parenchymal ischemia. In stroke, diffusion-weighted MR imaging (DWI) appears to be the most sensitive procedure to detect cerebral ischemia. We studied asymptomatic vasospasm in patients with aneurysmal SAH to assess whether DWI provides predictive markers of silent ischemic lesions and/or progression toward symptomatic ischemia.
