Imaging of Acute Ischemic Stroke [PDF]
European Neurology, 2014 <b><i>Background:</i></b> 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.
