Summary
The acute management of stroke patients requires a fast and efficient screening imaging
modality. The primary modalities used to select patients for endovascular thrombectomy (EVT)
are magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and CT/MR perfusion. The investigators prospectively
assessed MRI and CTP concordance/discordance and correlated the imaging on both with EVT
treatment decisions and clinical outcomes to verify the validity of MRI (FVH-DWI mismatch)
for the preoperative assessment of EVT in patients with an extended time window (6h to 24h).
