Overview

Echocardiography may be performed to determine the underlying etiology such as arrhythmias and the resultant clots in the heart that may spread to the brain vessels through the bloodstream.[1][2]

Echocardiography

  • Echocardiography may help assess the structural cause and source of emboli in ischemic stroke.[1][2]
  • It may also help assess risk factors for recurrent stroke such as atrial fibrillation, valvular heart disease and atherosclerosis.[1][2][3]

2021 Guideline for the Prevention of Stroke in Patients With Stroke and Transient Ischemic Attack: A Guideline From the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association[4]

Recommendations for Diagnostic Evaluation Referenced studies that support recommendations are summarized in online Data Supplements 1 and 2

Class I
3.     In patients with symptomatic anterior circulation cerebral infarction or TIA who are candidates for revascularization, noninvasive cervical carotid imaging with carotid ultrasonography, CT angiography (CTA), or magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is recommended to screen for stenosis.(Level of Evidence: B-NR)
