The specialists of Hadassah University Hospital first establish an accurate diagnosis of ischemic stroke or brain hemorrhage by combining the symptoms and signs and their clinical skills with the use of highly sophisticated imaging tools including diffusion and perfusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), FLAIR MRI, gradient echo MRI to detect blood in the brain and MR angiography and CT angiography to establish the exact location of vessel occlusion.
In the acute setting the Hospital offers comprehensive stroke care including the administration of thrombolytic drugs intravenously and intra-arterially in appropriate patients. It is also offered different endovascular therapy options including mechanical clot retrievers and stent placement.
