متن کاملImaging of Acute Ischemic Stroke
Background: Over 80% of strokes result from ischemic damage to the brain due to an acute reduction in the blood supply. Around 25–35% of strokes present with large vessel occlusion, and the patients in this category often present with severe neurological deficits. Without early treatment, the prognosis is poor. Stroke imaging is critical for assessing the extent of tissue damage and for guiding...
متن کاملAcute Stroke Imaging: Recent Updates
Acute ischemic stroke imaging is one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. Neuroimaging plays a crucial role in early diagnosis and yields essential information regarding tissue integrity, a factor that remains a key therapeutic determinant. Given the widespread public health implications of stroke and central role of neuroimaging in overall management, acute stroke imaging r...
