A groundbreaking clinical trial led by London Health Sciences Centre Research Institute (LHSCRI) and Western University’s Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry may enhance how medical professionals detect hidden blood clots responsible for strokes. The study, published in The Lancet Neurology, is the first to show that extending imaging to include the heart within minutes of a patient’s arrival to hospital with an acute stroke significantly improves the ability to determine the stroke’s underlying cause. This innovative diagnostic approach can be used to determine an effective and tailored treatment plan for preventing future strokes.
