    Intracranial atherosclerosis stenosis is a leading cause of ischemic stroke, particularly in East Asian populations.

  • 2

    High-resolution MRI can provide detailed morphological and compositional features of atherosclerotic plaques.

  • 3

    Plaque features such as enhancement and intraplaque hemorrhage may predict recurrent ischemic events.

  • 4

    This multicenter longitudinal study aims to assess the clinical relevance of plaque evolution in predicting ischemic events.

  • 5

    The study includes patients with significant MCA stenosis and cardiovascular risk factors, monitored over time.
