TOWS analyses for constructive strategic planning on the future of stroke and neurovascular imaging.

Opportunities Threats
Strengths S-O Strategies: Infrastructure
- central collection of imaging data
- imaging data sharing
S-T Strategies: Centralized Core
- permanent repository of imaging data beyond life of trials
Weaknesses W-O Strategies
- opportunity cost of not investing in stroke imaging central collection and analysis
W-T Strategies: Archiving Process
- continuous, systematic, standardized and timely extraction of stroke imaging CDEs
