Predictive value of the combination of lesion location and volume of ischemic infarction with rehabilitation outcomes

In acute ischemic stroke, infarct location and volume have, separately, been used to determine long-term outcomes after stroke. Little information exists on the combination of these imaging characteristics on rehabilitation outcomes. We evaluated the association between infarct lesion location volume with the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) measure during inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) in ischemic stroke patients. Between 2012 and...
