These modalities are applied in an integrated manner to assess stroke patients in the acute setting, aiming to support diagnosis, etiological investigation, detection of complications and monitoring of treatment response, as an adjunct, not a substitution for computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, or standard comprehensive ultrasound examination.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The integration of multiple ultrasound modalities within Stroke-POCUS enables clinicians to obtain rapid, noninvasive answers to well-defined clinical questions at the patient\u2019s bedside and in real time. This capability is particularly critical for patients requiring expedited diagnostics prior to urgent treatment initiation, for clinically unstable patients in whom intrahospital transport carries an increased risk of complications, as well as for assessing potential underlying causes, identifying secondary complications and monitoring treatment efficacy.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion and conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Stroke-POCUS represents a comprehensive bedside imaging strategy that enhances the evaluation and management of stroke patients.
