Watershed Infarcts

Images of a patient who has small infarctions in the right hemisphere in the deep borderzone (blue arrowheads) and also in the cortical borderzone between the MCA- and PCA-territory (yellow arrows).
There is abnormal signal in the right carotid (red arrow) as a result of occlusion.
In patients with abnormalities that may indicate borderzone infarcts, always study the images of the carotid artery to look for abnormal signal.
