In ischemic stroke, selectively cooling the ischemic penumbra might lead to neuroprotection while avoiding systemic complications. Because penumbral tissue has reduced cerebral blood flow and in vivo brain temperature measurement remains challenging, the effect of different methods of therapeutic hypothermia on penumbral temperature are unknown. We...
