| description | Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. Early diagnosis and treatment of stroke are important for better clinical outcome. Rapid and accurate diagnosis of stroke subtypes is critical. This review discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the current diagnostic and assessment techniques used in clinical practice, particularly for diagnosing acute ischemic stroke. Alternative techniques for rapid detection of stroke utilizing blood based biomarkers and novel portable devices employing imaging methods such as volumetric impedance phase-shift spectroscopy, microwave tomography and Doppler ultrasound are also discussed. Current therapeutic approaches for treating acute ischemic stroke using thrombolytic drugs and endovascular thrombectomy are discussed, with a focus on devices and approaches recently developed to treat large cranial vessel occlusions. |
