O-003 Time to Stroke Intervention is Reduced When CT Angiography is Performed Immediately after Non-contrast CT

Introduction

Imaging still serves as an integral tool for stroke validation and intervention. Limited data is available as to whether performing CTA immediately following non-contrast CT (NCCT) will delay overall treatment time. Centers conducting concurrent NCCT and CTA relative to those performing NCCT alone were evaluated to determine whether having additional imaging extends hospital workflow, prolonging time to IV rtPA and...
