E-223 Improved time to diagnosis with portable MR imaging

Abstract

with IIAs developed vasospasm significantly earlier with a mean time from rupture to spasm of 3.5±1.05 days compared to 5.81±3.48 days in NIAs (p=0.002). Conclusion Patients with ruptured IIAs are at a similar risk of vasospasm compared to NIAs with similar blood pattern and modified fisher score; however, they develop symptomatic and radiographic evidence of vasospasm earlier in the course of their disease. These findings argue for the need for routine and early screening for vasospasm in patients with ruptured IIAs.
