Diffusion kurtosis imaging in acute ischemic stroke: A systematic review of clinical correlations and prognostic utility
Stroke rehabilitation is a resource-intensive process necessitating optimal patient selection. DKI shows promise for predicting early microstructural changes and global functional outcomes, especially using the Mean Kurtosis (MK) parameter, though evidence for motor-specific recovery remains limited.
