The Effect of Multiple Neuroimaging Studies on Classification, Treatment and Outcome of Acute Ischemic Stroke
Ann Int Med 124:21-26, Salerno,S.M.,et al, 1996
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Serial neuroimaging studies did not alter the classification of strokes for which an initial diagnosis had already been made.However,they were useful in determining the cause of strokes initially classified as having an unknown cause.Therapy was almost always begun immediately after the first CT or MRI study was obtained.Outcome at hospital discharge was not significantly related to the number of neuroimaging studies obtained.
