Where this comes from

Abstract

• Computed tomographic perfusion (CTP) is increasingly being used in the characterization of brain ischemia.• Variations in post-processing protocols continue to be a challenge, resulting in a slight variation of CTP results.• We need to adopt a universal acquisition protocol to help optimize output of CTP.
