Diffusion-Weighted Imaging and Diagnosis of Transient Ischemic Attack Ann Neurol 75:67-76, Brazzelli, M.,et al, 2014 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract The commonest DWI finding in patients with definite TIA is a negative scan. Available data do not explain why 2/3 of patients with definite specialist-confirmed TIA have negative DWI findings. Until these factors are better understood, reclassifying DWI-positive TIAs as strokes is likely to increase variance in estimates of global stroke and TIA burden of disease.
