A Change of Heart: Yield of Cardiac Imaging in Acute Stroke Workup

A Change of Heart: Yield of Cardiac Imaging in Acute Stroke Workup

This case report describes a patient who experienced a recurrent ischemic stroke within 24 h. Dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) angiography on admission showed 2 intracardiac thrombi, 1 in the left ventricle and 1 in the left atrial appendage. Following the second ischemic event, repeated DECT...
