Utility of an Ultrafast Magnetic Resonance Imaging Protocol in Recent and Semi-Recent Strokes
JNNP 76:1002-1005,905, U-King-Im,J.M.,et al, 2005
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
It is possible to undertake a comprehensive MR examination in stroke patients in approximately three to five minutes. Ultrafast imaging may become a useful triage tool before thrombolytic therapy. It may be of particular benefit in patients unable to tolerate longer sequences. Further work is necessary to confirm these findings in hyperacute stroke.
