The computed tomography angiography (CTA) of the head and neck showed right vertebral artery occlusion with moderate diffuse intracranial atherosclerosis (Figure 1).
(a-d) MRI of the cervical spine with and without gadolinium demonstrated a restriction on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) (a) corresponding to the signal abnormality foci seen on short-TI inversion recovery (STIR) images (red circles in (b) and (d) and white marker image in (c)) and anterior compression from displaced cervical discs (white arrow in (b)).
