CT to CT-Angiography Time–an easy target for acute stroke pathway improvement: A Retrospective Analysis of Time from CT to CT-Angiography in Thrombectomy for Ischaemic Stroke
This study is the first to systematically assess CT-CTA time adherence across PSCs and it reveals substantial delays and modifiable barriers. It provides actionable insights for optimising stroke imaging protocols, reinforcing the need for integrated workflows to enhance MT accessibility and outcomes.
