Multimodal Imaging of Reversible Cerebral Vasoconstriction Syndrome: A Series of 6 Cases AJNR 33:1403-1410, Marder, C.P.,et al, 2012 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract RCVS is a clinical condition of recurrent severe headaches that may be associated with ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke and that is defined by the presence of segmental vasoconstriction in multiple cerebral arteries. The angiographic appearance resembles vasculitis, except that the abnormalities resolve during the course of several months. Because the treatment of RCVS differs from that for vasculitis, radiologist must understand the clinical and radiologic features so as to better guide imaging algorithms and facilitate diagnosis. We present a series of 6 cases of RCVS that highlight the imaging features across multiple modalities.
