Summary

This is a pilot, monocentric clinical investigation to evaluate the suitability of StrokeWave in distinguishing haemorragic from ischaemic strokes. The StrokeWave is a microwave device which employs a novel technique to generate images by processing very low power (\<1mW) microwaves. The trial design has been developed in order not to interfere with thw standard diagnostic approach used for the hyperacute stroke patients, nor to modify the usual standard timing of the routine assessment.

Conditions

  • Stroke, Ischemic
  • Stroke Hemorrhagic

Interventions

DEVICE

Device: clinical investigation microwave device class IIa not marked CE for stroke detection

Patients with hyperacute stroke are referred to the emergency room with a 'stroke code'. Clinical collected data includes NIHSS and mRS. Patients will undergo to NCCT in order to exclude the haemorragic nature of vascular disease. In the same diagnostic session the patient undergo to CTA with tri-phase protocol to assess LVO. Before starting the CTA acquisition with iodinate contrast injection the StrokeWave will be placed on the head of the patients in the CT room passing toward the gantry of the CT avoiding any loose of time. The scanning with the StrokeWave will be performed in about 5 minutes and the system will be removed allowing the CTA acquisition.
