Read our Stroke research guide →This research study is examining the artery plaques in your brain using a special type of MRI imaging called high-resolution MRI. Researchers want to create a large database of images from stroke patients to better understand what causes strokes and how to prevent them in the future. By taking detailed pictures of the plaques in your brain arteries, doctors hope to learn more about different types of strokes and develop better prevention strategies.
Stroke caused by artery plaques is very common in Asia and China, but doctors don't yet have enough large-scale studies showing what these plaques look like in patients' brains. This imaging technology can show plaque details without invasive procedures, and researchers want to use this information to better understand stroke causes and help prevent future strokes in patients like you.

If you join this study, you will have high-resolution MRI scans of your brain and neck arteries taken to look at the plaques that may have caused your stroke. The study will involve visits to collect this imaging data and potentially follow-up information about your recovery and any medications you are taking. The researchers are building a large database from patients across multiple medical centers to analyze patterns in how these plaques look and behave.
