CT angiography; no collateral damage

Collateral Damage

Understanding Cyber Collateral Damage

INTRODUCTION In conventional (kinetic) U.S. warfare, there exists a standard methodology for identifying and assessing collateral damage (i.e. accidental damage to civilian targets). Indeed, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) relies on a governing document that defines the policy regarding unlawful military targets (no-strike targets), and methods for estimating collateral damage from kinetic...

CT Angiography of Collateral Vessels and Outcomes in Endovascular-Treated Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Measuring the extent of the collateral blood vessels using computed tomography (CT) angiography source images may promote tissue survival and functional gain in acute ischemic stroke patients who are candidates for endovascular recanalization treatment. METHODS Of 5,558 acute stroke patients registered in a prospective clinical stroke registry, 104 met the selection cri...

Collateral vessels on CT angiography predict outcome in acute ischemic stroke.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Despite the abundance of emerging multimodal imaging techniques in the field of stroke, there is a paucity of data demonstrating a strong correlation between imaging findings and clinical outcome. This study explored how proximal arterial occlusions alter flow in collateral vessels and whether occlusion or extent of collaterals correlates with prehospital symptoms of fluc...
