Correlation between Optical Coherence Tomograph Angiography (OCT- A) findings at three to six weeks and functional outcome (modified Rankin Scale – mRS) at three months of onset of acute ischemic stroke due to Extracranial Carotid Artery Atherosclerotic Disease (ECAD)
Abstract:Objective To determine whether Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) findings of retinal and Optic Nerve Head (ONH) can help predict functional outcomes (mRS, modified Rankin Score) in patients with Extracranial Carotid Artery Atherosclerotic Disease (ECAD).Background OCTA can image retinal vasculature without the need of contrast injection. Previous studies have evaluated OCTA findings in the pre and post carotid revascularization procedures, however, none have evaluated the utility of OCTA in pred… Show more
