Purpose: This study aimed to verify the value of arterial spin labeling (ASL) collateral perfusion estimation for predicting functional outcomes in acute anterior circulation ischemic stroke. Methods: This secondary analysis of an ongoing prospective observational study included data from participants with acute ischemic stroke due to steno-occlusion of the internal carotid artery and/or the middle cerebral artery within 8 h of symptom onset. We compared the collateral map, which is a 5-phase collateral imaging derived from dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography, and ASL to validate the ASL collateral perfusion estimation. Multiple logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify independent predictors of favorable functional outcomes. Results: One hundred forty-eight participants (68 ± 13 years, 96 men) were evaluated. The ASL collateral perfusion grade was positively correlated with the collateral perfusion grade of the collateral map (P <.001). Younger age (OR = 0.53, 95% CI = 0.36–0.78, P =.002), lower baseline NIHSS score (OR = 0.85, 95% CI = 0.78–0.92, P <.001), intermediate ASL collateral perfusion grade (OR = 4.02, 95% CI = 1.43–11.26, P =.008), good ASL collateral perfusion grade (OR = 26.37, 95% CI = 1.06–655.01, P =.046), and successful reperfusion (OR = 5.84, 95% CI = 2.08–16.42, P <.001) were independently associated with favorable functional outcomes. Conclusion: ASL collateral perfusion estimation provides prognostic information, which can be helpful in guiding management decisions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
