    Multicenter CT perfusion imaging for stroke is hindered by significant variations in protocols, affecting research consistency and clinical guidelines.

  • 2

    The study analyzes real-world variations in CT perfusion protocols among stroke centers using data from the CLEOPATRA healthcare evaluation.

  • 3

    An anthropomorphic phantom was utilized to simulate acute ischemic stroke and assess the impact of different scan protocols on CTP imaging.

  • 4

    Three vendor software systems produced different perfusion parameters and exported perfusion maps in varying formats, complicating data comparison.

  • 5

    Standardizing vendor software could harmonize CTP imaging results, improving the reliability of ischemic region estimations across centers.
