Imaging Diagnosis of Transient Ischemic Attack in Clinic and Traditional Chinese Medicine

الملخص EN

Neuroimaging plays a pivotal role in Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA).

Generally, clinicians focus on the specific changes in morphology and function, but the diagnosis of TIA often depends on imaging evidence.

Whereas Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is concerned with the performance of clinical symptoms, they began to use imaging methods to diagnose TIA.

CT and MRI are the recommended modality to diagnose TIA and image ischemic lesions.

In addition, Transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD) and Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) are two acceptable alternatives for diagnosing TIA patients.

This article elaborates the update of imaging modalities in clinic and the development of imaging modalities in TCM.

Besides, multiple joint imaging technologies also will be evaluated whether enhanced diagnostic yields availably.
