Initial Experience with Upfront Arterial and Perfusion Imaging among Ischemic Stroke Patients Presenting within the 4.5-hour Time Window
Conclusions: An upfront CTA/CTP protocol aided stroke team decision-making in nearly half of cases. Implementation of a CTA/CTP protocol was associated with a learning curve of 6 months before door to needle time ≤60 minutes returned to similar rates as the pre-CTA/CTP protocol.

Image level detection of large vessel occlusion on 4D-CTA perfusion data using deep learning in acute stroke
Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) secondary to LVOs represent approximately 30-40% of all stroke cases and are associated with disproportionately higher morbidity and mortality.1, 2 The importance of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has been well established in multiple randomized controlled trials for patients in both early and late stroke windows.3-6 A critical aspect of the patient triage is the accurate and timely detection of underlying large vessel occlusion (LVO).
