Intra-arterial thrombolytic therapy improves outcome in patients with acute vertebrobasilar occlusive disease.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:It has been reported that National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores correlate poorly with hypoperfused tissue measured by perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI) in nondominant hemisphere stroke. We conducted 2 studies to determine whether tests of hemispatial neglect provide a better me...
