PURPOSE: To evaluate the diagnostic value of whole-brain computed tomographic perfusion (WB-CTP) in emergency department for suspected large artery occlusion stroke.
METHODS: Suspected large artery occlusion (LAO) stroke patients had initial WB-CTP in the neurological emergency department from August 2016 to August 2018 were retrospectively reviewed for analysis. The sensitivity and specificity of non-contrast computed tomographic scan (NCCT) or WB-CTP for diagnosis of cerebral infarction was compared between the anterior circulation and posterior circulation. The imaging characteristics of WB-CTP in patients with stroke-mimics were described.
RESULTS: Among the 300 included patients, 259 patients (86.3%) were finally diagnosed as cerebral infarction, 16 (5.3%) were transient ischemic attack, 10 (3.3%) were epileptic seizure and 3 (1%) were cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). For patients with final diagnosis of cerebral infarction, WB-CTP found abnormality in 206 cases (79.5%). NCCT had poor sensitivity (4.6%) but high specificity (100%) for cerebral infarction. The CTP imaging had a sensitivity of 81.2% in anterior circulation and 59.6% in posterior circulation stroke, both with good specificity (57.1% and 92.6%, respectively). 60% (6/10) of epileptic patients showed abnormal perfusion in CTP maps, which was inconsistent with cerebral arterial supply territories. Hypoperfusion manifestations were discovered in areas adjacent to occlusion sinus of all 3 CVST cases.
CONCLUSION: This retrospective study indicates WB-CTP can be useful in identifying acute ischemic stroke in emergency department, especially for patients with acute LAO stroke. Moreover, WB-CTP may have a value in differentiating stroke mimics such as epilepsy and CVST.
