Cerebral circulation time: evaluation methods and clinical significance in patients with acute ischemic stroke / 国际脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

Cerebral circulation time is defined as the difference between the time to peak of the cavernous sinus segment of the internal carotid artery and the Trolard vein, which is easily obtained in digital subtraction angiography and is closely associated with hemodynamics. Cerebral circulation time can be used to evaluate the outcome of acute ischemic stroke, especially in patients receiving endovascular treatment. This article reviews the evaluation methods of cerebral circulation time and its clinical significance in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
