Validity and reliability of a quantitative computed tomography score in predicting outcome of hyperacute stroke before thrombolytic therapy
Background Computed tomography (CT) must be done before thrombolytic treatment of
hyperacute ischaemic stroke, but the significance of early ischaemic change on CT is unclear. …
