By using Flat detector computed tomography (FD-CT), a one-stop-shop approach in the diagnostic workup of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) might be achieved. Although information on upstream vessels is warranted, dedicated FD-CT protocols which include the imaging of the cervical vasculature are still lacking. We aimed to prospectively evaluate the implementation of a new multimodal FD-CT protocol including cervical vessel imaging in AIS patients. In total, 16 patients were included in this study. Eight patients with AIS due to large vessel occlusion (LVO) prospectively received a fully multimodal FD-CT imaging, including non-enhanced flat detector computed tomography (NE-FDCT), dynamic perfusion flat detector computed tomography (FD-CTP) and flat detector computed tomography angiography (FD-CTA) including cervical imaging. For comparison of time metrics and image quality, eight AIS patients, which received multimodal CT imaging, were included retrospectively. Although image quality of NE-FDCT and FD-CTA was rated slightly lower than NE-CT and CTA, all FD-CT datasets were of diagnostic quality. Intracerebral hemorrhage exclusion and LVO detection was reliably possible. Median door-to-image time was comparable for the FD-CT group and the control group (CT:30 min, IQR27-58; FD-CT:44.5 min, IQR31-55, p = 0.491). Door-to-groin-puncture time (CT:79.5 min, IQR65-90; FD-CT:59.5 min, IQR51-67; p = 0.016) and image-to-groin-puncture time (CT:44 min, IQR30-50; FD-CT:14 min, IQR12-18; p < 0.001) were significantly shorter, when patients were directly transferred to the angiosuite, where FD-CT took place. Our study indicates that using a new fully multimodal FD-CT approach including imaging of cervical vessels for first-line imaging in AIS patients is feasible and comparable to multimodal CT imaging with substantial potential to streamline the stroke workflow.
