ABSTRACT
It could be shown that MRI has capability of demostrating parenchymal damage due to cerebrovascular disease even in asymptomatic individuals. In ischemic stroke MRI is superior to CT because of the earlier detection of the lesion, a More precise delineation of lacunes, of brainstem infarcts, and of hemorrhagic components. Evidence of confluent white matter damage is helpful in differentiating vascualr dementia from degenerative forms. Is hemorrhagic stroke CT remains the preferred imaging technique during the acute phase but MRI will detect remnants of a cerebral hemorrhage for lifetime
