Transcranial ultrasound brain perfusion assessment with a contrast agent-specific imaging mode: results of a two-center trial.

abstract：:Background and Purpose- Identifying the etiology of acute ischemic stroke is essential for effective secondary prevention. However, in at least one third of ischemic strokes, existing investigative protocols fail to determine the underlying cause. Establishing etiology is complicated by variation in clinical practice,...
