Abstract

By combining non-contrast-enhanced CT imaging, CT perfusion imaging, and cranial-to-chest CT angiography (CTA), the entire cerebrovascular axis can be imaged during acute stroke. To our knowledge, the safety and feasibility of this technique have not been previously reported. In a consecutive series of 53 patients with suspected acute stroke, renal failure was not observed. Median imaging time was 27 minutes (range, 9-67 minutes). Image quality was degraded by motion in 1.3% of vessels studied. Dynamic CT perfusion data were successfully obtained in 52 patients (98% of patients). High-speed, multisection, helical CT scanners allow rapid, safe imaging of the entire neurovascular axis in patients with acute stroke by use of combined CT imaging, CT perfusion imaging, and CTA.
