emerging imaging routine for the diagnostic assessment of acute ischemic stroke, their …

Background and Purpose— The goals of this study were to examine MRI baseline characteristics
of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and to study the influence of intravenous …

Background and Purpose— We investigated whether transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) before
stroke can induce tolerance by raising the threshold of tissue vulnerability in the human …

We tested the hypothesis that the type of vascular occlusion, recanalisation and collateralisation
are predictive of outcome after thrombolytic therapy in acute ischaemic stroke. We …
