Brief Summary: To determine whether transcranial 2-MHz ultrasound combined with intravenous administration of microbubbles improves early recanalization in patients with acute ischemic stroke caused by middle cerebral artery MCA proximal occlusion treated with intravenous alteplase within 3 hours of symptom onset
Detailed Description: Proximal MCA occlusion is recognized using MR or CT angiography performed before inclusion All patients are treated with alteplase according to current guidelines In addition patients randomized in the active group are continuously exposed to transcranial 2-MHz ultrasound for 1 hour combined with intravenous administration of microbubbles Controls are only treated with alteplase The ultrasound beam is positioned at the thrombusblood flow interface using color-coded sonography Galactose-based microbubbles are administered via continuous intravenous infusion over 40 min

Early recanalization is assessed using MR or CT angiography 4 to 8 hours after symptom onset The evaluation of angiograms is performed by 2 neuroradiologists blinded to group of randomization and clinical details The primary outcome measure is the rate of early recanalization Recanalization is assessed using the TIMI classification Secondary endpoints include the rate of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage mortality and functional outcome on the modified Rankin scale at 3 months
