Assessment of the Contribution of the External Carotid Artery to Brain Perfusion in Patients with Internal Carotid Artery Occlusion
Stroke 39:3003-3008, van Laar,P.J.,et al, 2008
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
In patients with symptomatic internal carotid artery occlusion, focal brain regions may strongly depend on the contribution to cerebral perfusion of the ECA ipsilateral to the side of the internal carotid artery occlusion, even in patients with limited ECA collateral supply as demonstrated on digital subtraction angiography.
