Investigation of Vascular Inflammation in Migraine Using Molecular Nano-imaging and Black Blood Imaging MRI

Feraheme is an USPIO agent, which will be applied as a contrast agent to visualize vascular inflammation in unilateral migraine without aura.

Cilostazol will be applied to provoke migraine attacks in migraineurs

USPIO-MRI scans will be performed in order to assess possible vascular inflammation associated with migraine attacks.

Black blood MRI scans will be performed in order to asses changes in vessel wall thickness due to possible vascular inflammation associated with migraine attacks.
