Noninvasive carotid testing in threatened stroke. 2. Predictive performance

  • D. C. Anderson

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

The various noninvasive tests have different inherent limitations, and expectations of the tests must take these limitations into account. The tests' main value lies in cases where indications do not clearly favor surgical management nor do they contraindicate it for prophylaxis of threatened stroke. In such cases, test results may help sway the clinician's decision. Intravenous digital subtraction angiography may affect the applicaton of the traditional noninvasive technologies in the future.
