Abstract
Patients with asymptomatic significant carotid stenosis show many preoperative SBI indicating a significant embolic risk. It is difficult to conclude about intraoperative embolic risk, but we hope that more data could demonstrate the importance of MRI for the preoperative evaluation of carotid plaques and brain parenchyma, to identify high-risk embolic patients.
