Data_Sheet_1_AC-ASPECTS, ACh-ASPECTS, and H-ASPECTS: new imaging scales to assess territorial and total cerebral hemispheric ischemic injury.docx
Version 1BackgroundThe extent of ischemic injury in acute stroke is assessed in clinical practice using the Acute Stroke Prognosis Early CT Score (ASPECTS) rating system. However, current ASPECTS semi-quantitative topographic scales assess only the middle cerebral artery (MCA) (original ASPECTS) and posterior cerebral (PC-ASPECTS) territories. For treatment decision-making in patients with anterior cerebral artery (ACA) occlusions and internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusions with large ischemic cores, me
