Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1.Aged 18 to 75 years; 2.Symptomatic arteriostenosis through the internal medicine treatment attributed to 70-99% stenosis of one of those cerebral arteries: Internal carotid artery (ICA ), M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery (MCA), vertebral artery, basilar artery, the stenosis diagnosed by CT/TCD/MRI/MRA/CTA and confirmed by DSA angiograph; 3.A target lesion length of <= 20 mm and the vessel diameter between 2.25mm and 5.0mm; 4.Only one target lesion to enroll in the study, and only one stent for the target lesion; 5.A Modified Rankin Score of <= 3; 6.With more than one atherosclerotic risk factors i.e., hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hyperhomocysteinemia or smoking; 7.Written informed consent signed.
