[Abstract] Objective: To discuss the diagnostic value of 3D-SNAP high resolution magnetic resonance in the intracranial artery dissection.Materials and Methods: 43 patients who suffered an ischemic stroke or transient ischemia attach from Jan 2015 to Mar 2018 were prospectively collected. They were devided into the intracranial artery dissection group (n=18) and the non-dissection group (n=25). All patients were performed TOF-MRA, T1WI-VISTA, T2WI, 3D-SNAP and CE-T1WI using Philips Ingenia 3.0 T MRI. The intracranial artery dissection were blinded analyzed image findings every sequences. The independent sample t test or chi-square test was used for clinic data, image findings between intracranial artery dissection group and the non-dissection group. ROC curve was used to evaluate diagnostic efficiency of each sequence in intracranial artery dissection.Results: (1) The age between artery dissection group and the non-dissection was statistically significant (P<0.05), it had no significant difference in gender, blood pressure, diabetes mellitus, and smoker between two groups. (2) There was significant difference in the displaying rates of intramural hematoma, double lumen, intimal flap signs in intracranial artery dissection on TOF-MRA, T2WI, T1WI-VISTA, SNAP and CE-T1WI. The SNAP was the most sensitive method for diagnosis of intramural hematoma, and the CE-T1WI was the most sensitive to display double lumen and intimal flap signs. (3) Areas of TOF-MRA, T2WI, T1WI-VISTA, SNAP, CE-T1WI, SNAP combined with CE-T1WI under ROC curves to diagnose intracranial arterial dissection were 0.663, 0.492, 0.729, 0.741, 0.752, 0.824, respectively.Conclusions: 3D-SNAP High resolution magnetic resonance is a noninvasive and effective method which has the greatest development potential and the most promising prospects to evaluate intracranial artery dissection.
