Diagnostic Yield of Cardiac CT to Detect Cardiac Thrombi in Acute Ischemic Stroke: an Individual Patient Data Meta-Analysis

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The aim of the AIS of HEARTS registry is to establish a database to collect, maintain and provide accessible individual patient data from international cohorts and to provide pooled analyses about the yield and value of cardiac computed tomography (CT), acquired during the initial stroke imaging protocol. The main analysis will investigate the diagnostic yield of cardiac CT to detect cardioembolic sources of stroke in acute ischemic stroke patients.
