Evaluation and Application of Medical Imaging for Acute Ischemic Stroke at Different Time Windows:A Review
Acute ischemic stroke(AIS)is characterized by high rates of disability and mortality.Early identification of AIS and accurate assessment of the time window for AIS are of great significance for improving the outcome.In recent years,the evaluation of the treatment time window guided by multimodal imaging technology has been increasingly concerned in the individualized and precise management of AIS.Clarifying the imaging characteristics of AIS at various onset time is crucial for early identification of AIS,accurate assessment of its onset time,evaluation of dynamic changes of the disease,and the effective guidance of reperfusion therapy.At present,a single imaging mode can no longer meet the clinical needs of precise management of AIS.Reasonable combined application of multimodal imaging can better achieve early diagnosis,onset time assessment,and prognosis evaluation of AIS.This paper reviewed the CT and MRI imaging characteristics of AIS at different onset time,the application value and progress of multimodal imaging technology,as well as the potential value of machine learning and artificial intelligence in the diagnosis and treatment of AIS.
