"A multicenter prospective trial involving 1210 patients in Europe has found that the odds of a favorable clinical outcome were one-third higher for acute stroke patients who received diffusion-perfusion MRI to determine the appropriateness of tPA thrombolysis than patients assessed with conventional noncontrast CT. Results drawn from the Safe Implementation of Thrombolysis in Stroke trial were presented at International Stroke Conference in San Francisco."
