Looking at blood flow after stroke clot removal
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses a special CT scan to see how well blood flows in the brain after a stroke patient has had a procedure to remove a clot. The goal is to learn more about recovery and improve future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a stroke and doctors planned or performed a procedure to remove a blood clot from your brain.
- Your doctor ordered a special CT scan (called FDCTP) to check your brain's blood flow.
- You are able to understand the study information and give your consent.
- You can come back for a check-up visit about 3 months after your stroke.
- You are able to communicate in the study's language.

This study examines how blood flow in the brain changes after a minimally invasive procedure to remove a blood clot during an acute stroke. The research uses MRI imaging to understand brain recovery patterns and may help improve stroke treatment outcomes.
This study checks how well CT or MRI “blood-flow” scans predict and measure brain injury in people with an acute ischemic stroke who are getting a clot-removing procedure. It may help doctors choose the right people for treatment and evaluate treatment effects using imaging taken soon after hospital arrival.
This trial uses a special imaging technique to check if blood flow has fully returned to the brain after a stroke clot is removed. It aims to improve understanding of how well the brain's tiny blood vessels are working after treatment.
This study enrolls people who had an acute ischemic stroke (caused by a blood clot) and received emergency treatment to remove the clot. Researchers want to understand why some patients recover well while others don't, by measuring how the brain regulates its own blood flow after treatment.
This trial looks at how blood flow and brain activity change in the first days after a stroke caused by a large blockage in the front part of the brain. It tests if certain patterns can help predict recovery after a procedure to remove the clot.
This trial tests if removing a large blood clot from the brain up to 3 days after a stroke improves recovery compared to standard medical care alone. It is for patients who have a severe stroke and are otherwise healthy enough for the procedure.
