Early Ischemic Lesion Recurrence Within a Week After Acute Ischemic Stroke
Ann Neurol 54:66-74, Kang,D.,et al, 2003
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
We analyzed 99 acute ischemic stroke patients scanned within 6 hours of onset and at subsequent times within the first week. Ischemic lesion recurrence was defined as any new lesion separate from the index lesion. These results may indicate a prolonged state of increased ischemic risk over the first week and suggest DWI as a possible surrogate measure for recurrent stroke.
