dysphagia in acute ischemic stroke
Introduction: Swallowing dysfunction complicates acute strokes in 25-32% of cases and directly affects patientschr('39') prognosis and recovery. Dysphagia complicates the course of acute strokes through its potential of the development of chest infection, nutritional problems, and dehydration. Dysphagia is also an independent predictor of respiratory morbidity and mortality in acute stroke. In...
متن کاملO10: Thrombo-Inflammation in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Ischemic stroke has been classified as a merely thrombotic disease, so the main goal of its treatment is the recanalization of the occluded vasculature. However, despite fast restoration of blood circulation, progressive stroke still develops in many patients, which has led to the concept of reperfusion injury. The underlying mechanism is only partly known. Though, it is accepted now, tha...
متن کاملMultivoxel MR spectroscopy in acute ischemic stroke: comparison to the stroke protocol MRI.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Few patients with stroke have been imaged with MR spectroscopy (MRS) within the first few hours after onset. We compared data from current MRI protocols to MRS in subjects with ischemic stroke. METHODS MRS was incorporated into the standard clinical MRI stroke protocol for subjects <24 hours after onset. MRI and clinical correlates for the metabolic data from MRS were s...
متن کاملBrain ischemia: CT and MRI techniques in acute ischemic stroke.
Imaging plays a central role for intravenous and intra-arterial arterial ischemic stroke treatment patient selection. Computed tomography (CT) / CT angiography or magnetic resonance (MR) / MR angiography imaging are used to exclude stroke mimics and haemorrhage, to determine the cause and mechanism of stroke, to define the extension of brain infarct and to identify the arterial occlusion. Imagi...
متن کاملLocally metastatic mucinous rectal adenocarcinoma: Imaging diagnosis with DW-MRI in comparison with PET-CT.
A 56-year-old male patient with locally advanced mucinous rectal cancer underwent neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Follow-up imaging with positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) revealed a local response to chemoradiotherapy, whereas diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) showed newly presented sacral bone metastasis. Histopathologically confirmed bone metastasis...
