We hypothesized that intracranial atherosclerosis, which is seen predominantly in older patients, affects vasospasm risk in aSAH. Intracranial atherosclerosis burden was quantified by using modified Woodcock (MW) score on CT angiograms measured by trained assessors. Vasospasm was defined based on transcranial Doppler (TCD) criteria.

Atherosclerosis, also called " hardening of the arteries, " occurs when fat, cholesterol and other substances are deposited in the walls of the arteries. Atherosclerosis is a common disease. These deposits are called plaques. Over time, these plaques can narrow or completely block arteries and cause problems throughout the body.
