4D Flow assessment was examined in 19 patients after extracranial-intracranial bypass. Analysis: 1, Blood flow volume (BFV). 2, Direction of blood flow. 3, Pressure gradient at the M1. The flow direction correlates with the type of bypass. The pressure gradient at M1 correlates with the BFV difference between BFV of contralateral ICA plus BA and BFV of bypass.
