A member asked:

Can doctors confirm strokes at hospital with blood tests ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Gurmukh Singh answered

More tests: No test may be needed for clinically classic stroke. There is no lab test specific for stroke. Imaging studies are usually used to support the clinical diagnosis
