Imaging plays a central role for intravenous and intra-arterial arterial ischemic stroke
treatment patient selection. Computed tomography (CT)/CT angiography or magnetic …

Arterial recanalization to restore the blood supply and limit the brain damage is the primary
goal in the management of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Since the publication of pivotal …

Background In patients with acute ischemic stroke caused by a proximal intracranial arterial
occlusion, intraarterial treatment is highly effective for emergency revascularization …

Background and Purpose—Acute stroke patients with a large ischemic core may still benefit
from mechanical thrombectomy (MT), but the predictors of clinical outcome are not well …

Background Whether infarct size modifies intra-arterial treatment effect is not certain,
particularly in patients with large infarcts. We examined the effect of the baseline Alberta …

Importance Endovascular therapy (ET) is typically not considered for patients with large
baseline ischemic cores (irreversibly injured tissue). Computed tomographic perfusion …

Objective: To compare the accuracy of Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography
Score (ASPECTS) and CT perfusion to detect established infarction in acute anterior …

Background and Purpose—Lesion volume on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance
imaging (DWI) before acute stroke therapy is a predictor of outcome. Therefore, patients with …

Background and Purpose—Randomized trials comparing the use of multimodal magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) to multimodal computed tomography (CT)/CT angiography (CTA) …

Background and Purpose—The extent of diffusion lesion on pretreatment imaging is a risk
factor for poor outcome and hemorrhagic transformation after thrombolysis, and volumes of …
