Hemorrhagic transformation is one of the most serious complications after endovascular treatment in patients with acute ischemic stroke, which is closely related to neurological deterioration and poor functional prognosis. Therefore, early detection and treatment of hemorrhagic transformation are of great significance for improving patient prognosis. Brain CT, CT angiography, CT perfusion imaging, MRI, diffusion weighted imaging, and susceptibility weighted imaging are relatively commonly used imaging methods in clinical practice. Reasonable use of imaging methods can reduce the risk of hemorrhagic transformation and improve patient prognosis. This article reviews common imaging evaluation techniques for hemorrhagic transformation in clinical practice in order to provide ideas for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
