Predicting recovery after stroke with brain scan scores
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how well different scores from brain scans can predict recovery after a stroke. It is for people who had an ischemic stroke and were treated with both clot-dissolving medicine and a clot removal procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You had a stroke caused by a blocked blood vessel (ischemic stroke), confirmed by a brain scan.
- You received both clot-dissolving medicine and a procedure to remove the clot.
- You are able to return for a follow-up visit 90 days after your stroke.
- Your stroke was not caused by bleeding in the brain (hemorrhagic stroke).
- Your brain scans are clear enough for doctors to analyze.

This study looks at people who had a stroke in the back part of the brain (posterior circulation) and had a procedure to remove a clot (mechanical thrombectomy). The goal is to find clues that predict whether there is hardening or narrowing of arteries inside the skull, which could help doctors treat future patients better.
This study checks early brain and arm/hand signals soon after a stroke to better predict how well people recover by about 90 days. It may help future, better-targeted stroke recovery studies by improving how recovery chances are measured early.
This study tries to predict how well your arm movement may improve after a stroke. It uses brain and/or nerve testing (like MRI and TMS) and could help doctors plan the best rehabilitation for you.
This study compares two types of clot/brain-bleeding risk imaging scans to see which better predicts recovery in people with ischemic stroke. If you qualify and get the right timing and scan results, the trial may help doctors choose the best way to predict your prognosis.
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 study uses special MRI scans to look for patterns that may predict recovery after a specific type of stroke caused by a blocked brain artery. It may help doctors choose the best treatment and better understand who benefits most from clot removal.
