3.0-T magnetic resonance (MR) angiography and MR imaging were compared with conventional angiography for the evaluation of moyamoya disease in 13 preoperative patients (26 hemispheres) with moyamoya disease (4 males and 9 females aged 21-54 years). The correlation between MR angiography scores determined by modified Houkin's grading system (MRA score) and conventional angiography stages determined by Suzuki's grading system (CA stage) was analyzed. Other MR findings such as moyamoya vessel scores, ivy sign scores, and the presence of small, medium, and large cerebrovascular attack (CVA) lesions were compared with CA stages. MRA scores were significantly correlated with CA stages (p < 0.01). Moyamoya vessel scores correlated well with CA stages (p < 0.01). There was no significant correlation between ivy sign scores and CA stages, and no significant differences in CA stages with the presence and absence of CVA lesions of any size. 3.0-T MR angiography can be used as a vascular assessment in moyamoya disease with its priority of noninvasive nature and visual clarity compared with conventional angiography. The findings of 3.0-T MR angiography may reflect the steno-occlusive changes in moyamoya disease.
