lüll Neuroimaging of stroke: a review Xavier AR; Qureshi AI; Kirmani JF; Yahia AM; Bakshi RSouth Med J 2003[Apr]; 96 (4): 367-79Advances in neuroimaging technology during the past 30 years have resulted in a virtual explosion in the amount of pathologic information that can be obtained in the clinical stroke setting. This neuroimaging revolution has led to a much better understanding of cerebrovascular and tissue pathology, creating a wide array of opportunities for acute treatment and secondary prevention. Advances include early and accurate detection of ischemic and infarcted tissue and the ability to reveal hypoperfused tissue at risk. Clinicians are increasingly able to noninvasively detect embolic and atherothrombotic intravascular lesions. Vascular lesions associated with stroke can be characterized through endovascular neuroimaging techniques and repaired by various means. In this article, we provide an overview and update on the various techniques used in the neuroimaging of stroke and intracranial hemorrhage, including computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, and catheter angiography. We outline the specific role of each modality in clinical practice.|*Cerebral Angiography[MESH]|*Magnetic Resonance Imaging[MESH]|*Stroke/classification/diagnostic imaging/pathology[MESH]|*Tomography, X-Ray Computed[MESH]|*Ultrasonography[MESH]|Acute Disease[MESH]|Aged[MESH]|Aged, 80 and over[MESH]|Chronic Disease[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH] |
