Iodinated contrast agents used for computed tomography angiography (CTA) may alter fibrin fiber characteristics and decrease fibrinolysis by tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). Thromboelastography (TEG) measures the dynamics of coagulation and correlates with thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke patients. We hypothesized that receiving CTA before tPA will not impair thrombolysis as measured by TEG.
