Abstract
PRES may have several radiological features. A higher blood pressure seems to be 1 of the factors responsible for developing widespread PRES, with involvement of carotid vascular territory. This clinical-radiological difference probably occurs because of the larger number of autonomic receptors in the carotid artery in comparison to the vertebral-basilar system.
