RESUMO
There is constant evolution in the diagnosis and treatment of acute ischemic stroke due to advances in treatments, imaging, and outreach. Two major revolutions were the advent of intravenous thrombolysis in the 1990s and endovascular thrombectomy in 2010s. Neuroimaging approaches have also evolved with key goals-detect hemorrhage, augment thrombolysis treatment selection, detect arterial occlusion, estimate infarct core, estimate viable penumbra, and augment thrombectomy treatment selection. The ideal approach to diagnosis and treatment may differ depending on the system of care and available resources. Future directions include expanding indications for these treatments, including a shift from time-based to tissue-based selection.
