Initial ‘TTP Map-Defect’ of Computed Tomography Perfusion as a Predictor of Hemorrhagic Transformation of Acute Ischemic Stroke

Initial ‘TTP Map-Defect’ of Computed Tomography Perfusion as a Predictor of Hemorrhagic Transformation of Acute Ischemic Stroke

Background: Hemorrhagic transformation (HT) following acute ischemic stroke is a major problem, especially for the indication of reperfusion therapy including intravenous administration of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (IV rt-PA). The specific predictive factors of HT have not yet been es...
