Comparison of CT and CT Angiography Source Images With Diffusion-Weighted Imaging in Patients With Acute Stroke Within 6 Hours After Onset Stroke 33:2426-2432, Schramm,P.,et al, 2002 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract The combination of non-contrast-enhanced CT (exclusion of intracranial hemorrhage), CTA (vessel status), and early contrast-enhanced CTA-SI (demarcation of irreversible infarct) allows diagnostic assessment of acute stroke with a quality com parable to that of stroke MRI. Furthermore, it is possible to distinguish patients at risk of infarct growth from those who are not according to the collateral status, in analogy with the stroke MRI mismatch concept.
