BACKGROUND AND AIM: The Los Angeles Motor Scale (LAMS) is an objective tool that has been used to rapidly assess and predict the presence of large vessel occlusion (LVO) in the pre-hospital setting successfully in several studies. However, studies assessing the relationship between LAMS score and CT perfusion collateral status (CS) markers such as cerebral blood volume (CBV) index, and hypoperfusion intensity ratio (HIR) are sparse. Our study therefore aims to assess the association of admission LAMS score with established CTP CS markers CBV Index and HIR in AIS-LVO cases...
