    AbstractThe incorporation of a short, easy-to-acquire and simple to read sequence to visualize the vessel wall and detect intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH) is achievable now. Demonstration of IPH may be helpful in primary or secondary prevention of neuroischemic events, assessment prior to carotid intervention and the general definition of an individual's vascular phenotype. The addition of an IPH-detecting vessel wall sequence only adds 5 to 6 minutes to a standard carotid MRI examination making clinical translation feasible and achievable.Crown Copyright © 2016.
