Lacunar infarcts represent one of the most frequent subtypes of ischemic strokes and may
represent the first recognizable manifestation of a progressive disease of the small …

Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is a group of pathological processes with multifarious
etiology and pathogenesis that are involved into the small arteries, arterioles, venules, and …

Abstract Purpose of Review Multimodal CT imaging (non-contrast CT, NCCT; CT
angiography, CTA; and CT Perfusion, CTP) is central to acute ischemic stroke diagnosis and …

Please see the Editorial Comment by Gregory Avey discussing this article. Recent

Background. The main theory underlying the use of perfusion imaging in acute ischemic
stroke is the presence of a hypoperfused volume of the brain downstream of an occluded …

Stroke mimics constitute a significant proportion of patients with suspected acute ischemic
