Webinar

“The Role of Metabolic and Capillary Perfusion in Acute Ischemic Stroke”

Join us for a compelling session with Asst. Prof. Dr. Ettore Nicolini from Policlinico Umberto 1 Hospital (Sapienza University), who will delve into the crucial role of metabolic and capillary perfusion in acute ischemic stroke. This webinar focuses on advanced neuroimaging markers that are shaping the future of stroke diagnostics and intervention.

CLINICAL USE CASES AND TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS


CLINICAL USE CASES
  • Assess outcomes post-intervention: detect missed stenoses, distal occlusions, or microvascular disturbances.
  • Guide complementary therapies on the spot based on perfusion status.
  • May detect the no-reflow phenomenon — providing insight into cases where recovery may fail despite successful thrombectomy.
  • Potentially enables direct-to-angio workflows.

TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS
  • Full set of perfusion markers: CBF, CBV, MTT.
  • Advanced oxygen metabolism imaging: OEF, CMRO₂.
  • Reliable results with as few as 5 CBCT acquisitions (bolus injection timing protocol very important).
  • Integrated with Siemens and Philips systems; GE/Canon under evaluation.

CBCT Imaging

Side-by-side comparison: The left-hand side is the raw CBCT data, while the right-hand side panel is the pre-processed data.
Using CMN software in the angio suite delivers results comparable to conventional CT/MR perfusion.
