Effect of Radiographic Contrast Media Shortage on Stroke Evaluation in the United States [ADULT BRAIN]

CONCLUSIONS:
Our analysis reported changes in the use of CTA and CTP in patients with acute ischemic stroke during the contrast media shortage. Further research needs to identify effective strategies to reduce the reliance on contrast media–based studies such as CTA and CTP without compromising patient outcomes.
