B ) Noncontrast computed tomography

Acute ischemic stroke patients are evaluated with

non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT), which is still a popular imaging modality. The NCCT scan's mild findings make it difficult to determine the symptoms of acute ischaemia and estimate the areas of the brain affected. With experience, clinical history, and the usage of the stroke window width and level on evaluating the images, the accuracy of early ischemia sign identification can be increased. The Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) was created to help patients who qualify for thrombolysis get around the challenge of volume estimation. It is a methodical, reliable, and useful way to standardise the identification and reporting of the severity of acute ischemic stroke. This piece helps.
