Regional denervation volume has superior cause-specific mortality prediction for SCA versus global parameters of sympathetic innervation. These results have widespread implications for future cardiac sympathetic imaging, which will greatly simplify innervation analysis. Registration URL https//www.clinicaltrials.gov; Unique identifier NCT01400334.Background Comprehensive hemodynamic impairment mapping using blood oxygenation-level dependent (BOLD) cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) can be used to identify hemodynamically relevant symptomatic unilateral carotid artery disease. Methods and Results This prospective cohort study was conducted between February 2015 and July 2020 at the Clinical Neuroscience Center of the University Hospital Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland. One hundred two patients with newly diagnosed symptomatic unilateral internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion or with 70% to 99% ICA stenosis were included. An age-matched healthy cohort of 12 subjects underwent an identical BOLD functional magnetic resonance imaging examination. Using BOLD functional magnetic resonance imaging with a standardized CO2 stimulus, CVR impairment was evaluated. Moreover, embolic versus hemodynamic ischemic patterns were evaluated on diffusion-weighted imaging. Sixty-seven patients had unilateral ICA occlusion and 35 patients unilateral 70% to 99% ICA stenosis. Patients with ICA occlusion exhibited lower whole-brain and ipsilateral hemisphere mean BOLD-CVR values as compared with healthy subjects (0.12±0.08 versus 0.19±0.04, P=0.004 and 0.09±0.09 versus 0.18±0.04, P less then 0.001) and ICA stenosis cohort (0.12±0.08 versus 0.16±0.05, P=0.01 and 0.09±0.09 versus 0.15±0.05, P=0.01); however, only 40 (58%) patients of the cohort showed significant BOLD-CVR impairment. Conversely, there
