Reliability of Two Diameters Method in Determining Acute Infarct Size. Validation as New Imaging Biomarker.

Reliability of Two Diameters Method in Determining Acute Infarct Size. Validation as New Imaging Biomarker.

In order to select patients most likely to benefit for thrombolysis and to predict patient outcome in acute ischemic stroke, the volumetric assessment of the infarcted tissue is used. However, infarct volume estimation on Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) has moderate interrater variability despite t...
