Observational study in patients with stroke with large-vessel occlusion presenting in the extended window suggests non-contrast CT is as good as CT perfusion or MRI to select patients for thrombectomy.

Commentary on Twitter
Don’t have CTP worry not! No MRI/MRP worry not! Good old non-contrast CTH performs just as well for pt selection! But I do like those colored CBF, CBV, MTT maps & don’t like the errors in image processing! This will inc access to late thrombectomy #NoELVOleftbehind @almuftifawaz https://t.co/vBv5y2IDjT

Thoracic and lung involvement of IgG4-RD are heterogeneous and underevaluated. Peribronchovascular involvement and lymph node enlargement are most frequent patterns. Interstitial disease pattern seems to be associated with lower rate of treatment response. https://t.co/AMuLjPByut pic.twitter.com/ZmDrz6nK6g
