The positive DWI signal and almost negative T2-FLAIR signal suggested a DWI–FLAIR mismatch, a phenomenon described in the first hours after stroke onset in humans (27 – 29). Imaging features were ...

The Acute Ischemic Stroke Detection with Portable MR (ACTION PMR) study is a prospective, international, multi-site observational study that aims to examine the integration of brain imaging with ...

A stroke is a medical emergency, and quick treatment is essential. Brain damage and other consequences can be minimized with early intervention. When blood supply to a region of the brain is reduced ...

The observational study, recently published in Neurology, used MRI images to measure the area of the brain damaged by a stroke. The study specifically examined white matter hyperintensities, which ...

Portable bedside MRI showed promise in detecting infarcts revealed on high-field MRI in those with acute ischemic stroke, with better performance on larger sized infarcts, according to a poster ...

The fastest type of MRI is diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). It measures shifts in fluid in the brain and can detect a stroke soon after its onset. An MRI can also detect evidence of past strokes.

Each patient had conventional MRI scans to confirm a diagnosis of ischemic stroke. They were then scanned with the portable MRI machine, which could accurately detect brain blood clots in 90 ...

More specifically, a minor ischemic stroke. (Almost 90 percent of strokes, which afflict 795,000 Americans a year, are ischemic, meaning they result from a clot that reduces blood flow to the brain.) ...

The findings, which were published in Neurology, also indicated that early brain MRI “is a useful addition” to the clinical evaluation of transient or minor neurological events.
