Abstract excerpt
Cerebral infarct growth rate (IGR) varies widely in ischemic stroke, and this has important clinical implications. In their recent article, Lin et al. explored IGR characteristics and treatment modification in so-called "ultrafast progressors". We comment on the study's methodology for calculating IGR and its interpretation, arguing that perfusion-derived metrics should probably not be adjusted for the time...
