Renal Safety of Intra-Arterial Treatment after Acute Ischemic Stroke with Multimodal CT Imaging selection

Renal Safety of Intra-Arterial Treatment after Acute Ischemic Stroke with Multimodal CT Imaging selection, Background: Multimodal computed tomography imaging is used to identify eligible patients for intra-arterial treatment. A concern with this method is the multiple use of iodinated contrast material which presents a possible risk of renal toxicity. We compared the safety of intra-arterial treatment versus intravenous treatment during acute ischemic stroke treatment with a focus on renal safety., Background: Multimodal computed tomography imaging is used to identify eligible patients for intra-arterial treatment. A concern with this method is the multiple use of iodinated contrast material which presents a possible risk of renal toxicity. We compared the safety of intra-arterial treatment versus intravenous treatment during acute ischemic stroke treatment with a focus on renal safety. Methods: Adult acute ischemic stroke patients who underwent a baseline Multimodal computed tomography, then intra-arterial treatment and/or intravenous treatment were identified., admin,
