Neuroimaging of Acute Stroke

Neurologic Clinics, 2020
Acute stroke is the clinical manifestation of disrupted blood flow or bleeding in the central nervous system. Imaging supports the clinical diagnosis and can aide in acute treatment decision making and guide information on prognosis. Features that are delineated include the parenchyma and the blood vessels.

Thrombolysis in Acute Stroke

Archives of Neurology, 1996
Thrombolytictherapy for stroke signals a breakthrough, through clots and nihilistic attitudes. Although a systematic approach to stroke care as exemplified by stroke units has been shown to improve outcomes, 1 recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) is the first drug to make a demonstrable difference to stroke.

Acute Ischemic Stroke

Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 1996
While case fatality rates in ischemic stroke tend to decline, the total number of strokes is expected to increase further in the future because of more people reaching a greater age. Acute ischemic stroke, usually caused by chronic arterial hypertension, in most cases is induced either by a sudden loss of perfusion pressure or by thromboembolism ...

Acute Stroke and Diabetes

Cerebrovascular Diseases, 2005
Diabetes and hyperglycaemia are each over-represented amongst patients with acute stroke. Hyperglycaemia is associated with poor stroke outcome. Symptomatic intracranial haemorrhagic transformation is commoner in diabetes and hyperglycaemia but the treatment effect of thrombolysis appears not to be influenced by blood sugar level. Evidence from general

Imaging of acute stroke

Nature Reviews Neurology, 2010
Brain imaging provides an objective basis for the clinical inferences that direct individual patient management in the acute stroke setting. A brain CT or MRI scan is required for all patients with suspected stroke or transient ischemic attack. Thrombolytic therapy is arguably the most important aspect of acute stroke management; however, most ...

Stroke — acute interventions

2002
The reduction of blood flow to parts of the brain is the cause of ischemic stroke leading to functional deficits and, if prolonged, to irreversible neurological and morphological defects. The fast reperfusion, therefore is the most important therapeutic strategy and was proven to be effective in clinical trials.

Acute stroke units

Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 1999
In December of 1996, the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) sponsored a national symposium on Rapid Identification and Treatment of Acute Stroke. 1 One of the basic messages taken from this meeting was that every hospital that cares for patients with acute stroke needs a stroke plan.

Prognosis of acute stroke

Neurology, 1987
We evaluated factors affecting mortality and quality of life in 1,013 patients with acute stroke followed for 2 to 8 years. In cerebral infarction, the major determinants for short-term mortality were impaired consciousness, leg weakness, and increasing age. The major determinants for long-term mortality were low level of activity at hospital discharge,

Imaging in acute stroke

European Radiology, 2005
Stroke is a syndrome characterized by a sudden neurological deficit caused by intracranial hemorrhage or ischemia. Computed tomography (CT) maintains a primary role in the evaluation of patients with acute stroke. The optimal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocol in acute stroke includes diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) to show acute ischemic ...
