- Recent Administration of Iodinated Contrast Renders Core Infarct Estimation Inaccurate Using RAPID Software
Patients who received IV iodinated contrast in proximity (<8 hours) to CTA/CTP as part of a separate imaging study had a much higher likelihood of core infarct underestimation with RAPID software compared with contrast-naive patients. Over-reliance on RAPID postprocessing for treatment disposition of patients with extended window emergent large-vessel occlusion should be avoided, particularly in cases with recent IV contrast administration.
