DIAGNOSTICS OF REVERSIBLE CEREBRAL VASOCONSTRICTION SYNDROME: CLINICAL MANIFESTATION AND IMAGING PATTERNS

Abstract

Data of 130 patients with thunderclap headache are presented. The data include clinical manifestation analysis and neuroimaging results (magnetic resonance angiography). Magnetic resonance angiography was performed 15 days after acute clinical manifestation and permitted to verify cerebral vasoconstriction, that led to treatment modification with clinical and neuroimaging signs of vasoconstriction reverse.
