Abstract: In this paper, the is risk factors and MR characteristics of acute cerebral infarction in young and middle-aged and elderly were studied, and it is value in clinical diagnosis, treatment and prevention was discussed. To compare and analyze the medical records and imaging data of the young group and the middle-aged and elderly group.The results showed that the most common risk factors were hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia and smoking. The incidence of hypertension, diabetes and hypercholesterolemia in the middle-aged and elderly patients with acute cerebral infarction was significantly higher than that in the young group (P<0.05); the incidence of hypertriglyceridemia and smoking in the young group was significantly higher middle-aged and elderly group (P<0.05). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant in the normal rate of brain MRA and the abnormal rate of multiple vessels (P<0.05); there was no statistical difference in lesion size and number of lesions, and between various parts of acute cerebral infarction (P>0.05).
