Background And Purpose

Intracranial arterial stenosis (ICAS) is one of the most common causes of ischaemic stroke in Asia. Knowledge of the prevalence and risk factors of asymptomatic ICAS is limited. The prevalence of ICAS was therefore investigated and its risk factors in a Chinese community-based population were explored.
