Summary This source presents the current status of concepts and research on ischemic penumbra and identifies the latest methods for clinicians to quickly and efficiently recognize viable cerebral tissue for enhanced stroke management. Focusing on state-of-the-science technologies and cutting-edge trends, this guide examines imaging strategies utilizing PET, SPECT, MR, and CT for improved identification of key areas for intervention and therapy in the management of stroke patients
