Multimodal CT provides improved performance for lacunar infarct detection
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Lacunar infarcts account for approximately 25% of acute
ischemic strokes. Compared with NCCT alone, the addition of CTP improves sensitivity for …

Role of computed tomography perfusion in identification of acute lacunar stroke syndromes
Background and Purpose: Lacunar syndromes correlate with a lacunar stroke on imaging in
50% to 60% of cases. Computed tomography perfusion (CTP) is becoming the preferred …

Clinical MRI cutoff points for predicting lacunar stroke may not exist: need for a grading rather than a dichotomizing system
Background: Lacunar stroke has been defined as an infarct< 15 mm in diameter in the
presence of symptoms of lacunar syndromes. We investigated a new approach in predicting …

Validation of a Simple Clinical Tool for Screening of Acute Lacunar Stroke–a substudy of the WAKE-UP trial
Introduction: Lacunar stroke represents around a quarter of all ischemic strokes, however,
their identification with Computed Tomography in the hyperacute setting is challenging. We …

Normal magnetic resonance perfusion-weighted imaging in lacunar infarcts predicts a low risk of early deterioration
Background: Current clinical tools to identify lacunar infarct patients at risk of deterioration
are inadequate, and imaging techniques to predict fluctuation and deterioration would be of …
