Description
Ibrahim Serag reports a 2026 conference review on whether a flow scan early in stroke care beats a plain scan for fast choices. Both scan types are used within hours of onset to guide clot care. Which path gives better workflow and outcomes has stayed unsettled.
Fourteen studies with near nineteen thousand patients were pooled. Flow scan paths raised the share of patients who qualified for clot care. They also cut drug start times by about six minutes on average. More patients on flow scan paths lived on their own later. Severe bleeding and death rates did not differ between paths. The author backs wider flow scan use, above all in high-volume centers.
