ProSPective Evaluation of Non-contrast sINe spiN Flat-dEtectoR CT for the Detection of Intracranial hemorrhageS

ProSPective Evaluation of the dIagnostic Accuracy of siNe spiN Noncontrast Flat-dEtectoR CT (FDCT) for the Detection of Intracranial Hemorrhage in Stroke Patients

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 22 May 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Stroke is one of the leading causes of mortality and disability worldwide. Optimization of intra-hospital pathways is as of today one of the most promising research topics in stroke treatment. A potential solution to shorten the time needed for current workflows, and therefore reperfusion, is to do both imaging and subsequent endovascular therapy (EVT) in the angiography suite using non-contrast syngo DynaCT Sine Spin (FDCT) for the exclusion of intracranial hemorrhage and flat detector CT angiography (FDCTA) or digital subtraction angiography for diagnosis of LVO. It is still a matter of debate if FDCT can reliably differentiate between ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. This study aims to investigate if non-contrast syngo DynaCT Sine Spin imaging is non-inferior to non-contrast MDCT imaging regarding its sensitivity and specificity for the detection of intracranial hemorrhages.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Evidence of an ongoing pregnancy prior to enrollment. A negative pregnancy test before enrollment is required for all women with child-bearing potential

Other

  • Severe metal artifacts on initial MDCT imaging
  • Planned invasive interventions between MDCT and FDCT scan
  • Clinical deterioration between MDCT and FDCT scan (i.e. an increase of the NIHSS of more than 4 points)

Who the study is looking for

  • Informed Consent as documented by signature or fulfilling the criteria for emergency or deferral consent
  • Patients with symptoms suggestive of ischemic stroke (NIHSS ≥ 7) or suggestive of haemorrhagic stroke with a cranial non-contrast MDCT and a feasible non-contrast syngo DynaCT Sine Spin within 4 hours
  • Patient presenting within 24 hours of last seen well
  • Patients presenting directly to the treating hospital (i.e. mothership patients) OR transfer patients with the indication for repeated imaging according to the standard operation procedures of the treating hospital
  • Age above 18 years
  • Agreement of treating physician to perform non-contrast syngo DynaCT Sine Spin

Age in the registry: 18 years to - · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
