Diffusion-Weighted MR Findings in Isolated Angilitis of the Central Nervous System (IACNS)
Acta Neurol Scand 108:346-351, Lee, S.-Y.,et al, 2003
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
The findings suggest that the various stages of inflammatory process with ischaemia might exist in IACNS and allow a differentiation from the usual arterial ischaemic infarction. DWI with ADC map can be a useful non-invasive diagnostic test increasing specificity in the diagnosis of IACNS, combined with conventional MRI and cerebral angiography.
