Ischemic stroke is a highly complex and devastating neurological disease. The sudden loss
of blood flow to a brain region due to an ischemic insult leads to severe damage to that area …

Brain imaging is essential to the clinical management of patients with ischemic stroke.
Timely and accessible neuroimaging, however, can be limited in clinical stroke pathways …

Multimodal CT features prominently in the rapidly evolving field of acute stroke triage, with
perfusion CT applications at the forefront of many clinical research efforts. Perfusion CT …

Background and Purpose—The rationale for recanalization therapy in acute ischemic stroke
is to preserve brain through penumbral salvage and thus improve clinical outcomes. We …

Background and Purpose—MRI using diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is the most
sensitive diagnostic imaging modality for early detection of ischemia, but how accurate is it …

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

Purposes: To investigate whether activation of adenosine A1 receptor (A1R) through limb
remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) by a noninvasive tourniquet contribute …

Background Recent advances have highlighted the efficacy of endovascular thrombectomy
(EVT) in patients with large ischemic core stroke, yet a significant portion still experience …

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

Introduction The study attempts to identify notable factors predicting poor outcome, death,
and intracranial hemorrhage in patients with acute ischemic stroke undergoing mechanical …
