The First CT Scan of the Brain: Entering the Neurologic Information Age.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Stroke due to occlusion of the artery of Percheron (AOP), an uncommon anatomic variant supplying the bilateral medial thalami, may raise diagnostic challenges and cause life-threatening symptoms. Our objective here was to detail the features and outcomes in three patients who required intensive care unit (ICU...
