Prognostic yield of imaging before and after recanalization treatments in ischemic stroke.

Objectives: The scores to predict outcome in ischemic stroke were validated prior to the approval of modern revascularization treatments. We evaluated the accuracy of pre and post-treatment models in a recent recanalization therapy cohort and whether radiological and ultrasound findings could improve their accuracy.

Material & Methods: We included 375 anterior circulation ischemic stroke patients treated with intravenous thrombolysis or thrombectomy during 2017 and 2018.
