Stroke 34:1324-1332, Nederkoorn,P.J.,et al, 2003
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
These results suggest that MRA has a better discriminatory power compared with DUS in diagnosing 70% to 99% stenosis and is a sensitive and specific test compared with DSA in the evaluation of carotid artery stenosis. For detecting occlusion, both DUS and MRA are very accurate.
