A Teleradiology System for Early Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke Evaluation and Management

Abstract

Purpose Stroke is a cardinal cause of death and disability globally. It is an emergency condition where the rapidity of diagnosis is directly linked to the outcome. “Imaging is Brain” is, therefore, an important concept. The early diagnosis of stroke is crucial not only in guiding its effective treatment but also in estimating prognosis. This study aims to provide perspective on the implementation of international teleradiology in stroke evaluation, management, and care.
