Detailed description

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of the contrast taking carotid plaques in these acute ischemic strokes. The secondary objectives are: * to determine the clinical, sonographic, CT scanner and MRI characteristics of patients in constituted acute cerebral ischemia with carotid atherosclerotic plaque taking contrast to the doppler ultrasound. * to explore of the plaque contrast enhancement at 6 months (new injection).

Conditions

• Cerebral Infarction
