Abstract

“Code Stroke” is a multidisciplinary procedure designed to detect acute ischemic strokes and transfer patients for early reperfusion.

Selecting these patients requires multimodal imaging with either CT or MRI. 1) Conventional studies without contrast material are obligatory to detect bleeding. Applying the ASPECTS scale, these studies can also identify and quantify areas of early infarction. 2) In candidates for mechanical thrombectomy, angiographic studies are necessary to identify stenoses and obstructions and to evaluate the collateral circulation. 3) Patients with known onset between 6 and 24h or with unknown onset require perfusion studies to distinguish between infracted tissue and recoverable ischemic tissue.

Semi-automatic software facilitates diagnosis, but radiologists must interpret its output.

Resumen

El «código ictus» es un procedimiento multidisciplinar diseñado para detectar los ictus agudos de origen isquémico y trasladar a los pacientes para una terapia de reperfusión temprana.

Para la selección de estos pacientes es necesario un estudio radiológico multimodal indistintamente con TC o RM: 1) exploración convencional sin contraste, obligatoria para detectar sangrado; también identifica y cuantifica las áreas de infarto precoz utilizando la escala ASPECTS; 2) estudio angiográfico, necesario en pacientes candidatos a tratamiento mecánico intraarterial; identifica estenosis y obstrucciones y valora la circulación colateral; 3) estudio de perfusión para los pacientes con evolución de entre 6 y 24h o tiempo indeterminado desde el inicio del evento que discrimina tejido infartado de tejido isquémico recuperable.

Los softwares semiautomáticos facilitan el diagnóstico, pero precisan la interpretación del radiólogo.
