Summary
During the second half of the twentieth century and first quarter of the twenty-first, new cerebrovascular syndromes were identified. The advent of modern brain and vascular imaging allowed identification of previously unrecognized or underrecognized conditions. Once the diagnosis could be made clinically, further experience allowed recognition of the frequency, demography, clinical findings, and course of the conditions and paved the way for treatment. Four representative entities have been chosen that illustrate discovery and evolution during this time.
