Prognostic Value of pc-ASPECTS Before Endovascular Therapy in Posterior Circulation Stroke: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

BACKGROUND The posterior circulation Acute Stroke Prognosis Early CT Score (pc-ASPECTS; range 0-10) is a region-based scoring system designed to quantify early ischemic change in the vertebrobasilar territory and is increasingly used to inform patient selection for endovascular therapy. However, whether its prognostic...

Photon-Counting Detector CT Improves Visualization of the Normal Carotid Body Compared with Energy-Integrating Detector CT.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The carotid bodies are small chemoreceptor organs at the carotid bifurcation. Their depiction on conventional CT angiography is inconsistent, with reported detection rates on energy-integrating detector CT (EID-CT) of 62% to 91%. This study evaluates whether photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT) i...

Diagnostic Accuracy of Portable Low- and Ultra-Low-Field MRI for Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Portable low/ultra-low-field MRI showed moderate diagnostic performance for AIS detection in comparative studies and may serve as a bedside adjunct where conventional MRI is constrained, however, given the false-negative risk, portable MRI should not be relied upon as a stand-alone rule-out test for AIS when clinical s...
