Multimodal imaging evaluation of early neurological deterioration following acute ischemic stroke.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Early neurologic deterioration occurs in up to one-third of patients with acute ischemic stroke (IS), often leading to poor functional outcomes. At present, few studies have applied amide proton transfer (APT) imaging to the evaluation of early neurological deterioration (END). This study analyzed the value of computed tomography perfusion (CTP) combined with multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with acute IS with END.

Methods

This retrospective study included patients with acute IS who were admitted to the neurology inpatient department in a tertiary hospital from October 2021 to June 2023. Patients with acute IS underwent CTP within 24 hours of stroke onset and MRI [arterial spin labeling (ASL), susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI), and APT]
