Stroke Diagnostics: Needs, Expectations and PossibilitiesAACC presents a Webinar
Stroke Diagnostics: Needs, Expectations and Possibilities Realizing that IVD tests could help clinicians rapidly tell the difference between stroke and other conditions that mimic its symptoms, researchers are evaluating a number of diagnostic markers, examining how they perform alone and in panels. The ultimate goal is to definitively identify those who have suffered stroke within three hours of the onset of symptoms, so that therapeutic drugs can be administered and patient outcomes can be significantly improved. Participate in this interactive Webinar and hear Dr. Robert Christenson discuss:
