Zusammenfassung

Background: Current protocols for treatment of patients with recent carotid artery TIA or minor stroke stress the importance of rapid diagnosis and treatment of symptomatic carotid artery stenosis to prevent stroke recurrence. ABCD2 scores are used as predictors of stroke recurrence in this patient group but these factors cannot predict individual stroke risk. TCD embolus detection however can determine individual stroke risk. Therefore this study provides data of clinical implementation of a new embolus detection system (EDS) which has been developed for automatic detection of micro-embolic signals (MES) in TIA…
