This study had 2 goals: (1) to assess interrater reliability of academic neuroradiologists when classifying acute infarction by CT scan as >1/3 middle cerebral artery (MCA) involvement, <1/3 MCA involvement, or no infarction and (2) to determine the sensitivity of physicians potentially involved in acute stroke treatment in detecting >1/3 MCA acute infarctions. Studies of tissue plasminogen activator show an association between early signs of major infarction and poor outcome. The American Academy of Neurology and the American Heart Association recommend avoiding thrombolysis if early signs of major infarction are present.
