Abstract
Ischemic stroke is a medical emergency requiring fast and effective collaboration of neurologists and radiologists. Currently there are promising new developments in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke with efforts being made to reduce the door-to-needle time and to improve recanalization of occluded vessels by new endovascular techniques. Clinical trials have also demonstrated the efficacy of thrombolysis up to 4.5 h and confirmed the importance of the time to treatment for positive outcome.Entities:
