REFERENCE: Abstract 2
MRI scanning could make it possible to treat stroke patients safely and effectively with thrombolytics such as tPA beyond the recommended 3 hour window. The International Stroke Conference heard analysis of pooled data from five European Stroke Centers that compared CT and treatment within 3 hours with the use of MRI plus treatment either within 3 hours or longer than this. After his presentation in San Francisco Peter Schellinger explained the study to Helen Morant.
