Cardiogenic embolism accounts for 15% to 30% of ischemic strokes. Echocardiography is frequently being used as a screening test for sources of cardiac embolism in patients with stroke. However, the value of routine use of echocardiography for this task remains controversial. We evaluated the diagnostic yield of echocardiography in unselected patients with acute ischemic stroke.
