Prognostication with Low-field Portable MRI: White Matter Hyperintensity Volume Predicts Early Outcomes after Acute Ischemic Stroke (P5-5.010)

Key Points

• This research aims to evaluate the agreement between low-field portable MRI and conventional MRI regarding white matter hyperintensity volumes and their prognostic value after acute ischemic stroke.
• Assessed white matter hyperintensity volumes using both low-field portable and conventional MRI.
• Compared WMHv results to determine predictive accuracy for outcomes after acute ischemic stroke.
• Low-field portable MRI showed a strong correlation with conventional MRI in white matter hyperintensity volumes.
• Increased WMHv predicted poorer outcomes after acute ischemic stroke with statistical significance.
