Funded Activity Summary

Many centres now use advanced CT scanning techniques to assess stroke patient suitability for clot-dissolving treatment. However, there is major variation across Australia in the clinical application of advanced CT scanning techniques, which is a barrier to the delivery of this treatment. This project addresses the variation in CT imaging techniques by developing, piloting and evaluating the implementation of a standardised advanced CT scanning strategy for acute stroke patients.
