Higher Risk of Further Vascular Events Among Tran sient Ischemic Attack Patients with Diffusion-Weighted Imaging Acute Ischemic Lesions
Stroke 35:2313-2319, Purroy,F.,et al, 2004
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
TIA patients with DWI abnormalities associated with duration of symptoms >1 hour and those with large-artery occlusive disease have a higher risk of further vascular events. Routine use of DWI and Doppler ultrasonographic examinations will be useful for identifying TIA patients at high risk to plan aggressive prevention therapies.
