Taking Stroke Tx on the Road

Damn, damn, damn, going down the failure path again. While this might help in the short term it's just delaying the search for something that actually works. A 12% tPA efficacy rate is not a success by any stretch of the imagination. This is why no one in the stroke medical world should be making decisions about stroke. They fail almost every time. You notice they are using a portable CT scanner rather than seeing if one of the fast and objective possibilities are worth using.  Cost a hell of a lot less than 1M.

"My prediction is that 10 years from now every city in the country will have imaging on their ambulances,"
You are going to be so wrong with that stupid prediction, the tricorder will be used to diagnose stroke long before then. Do you even know about anything newer than 30 years ago?  Turn in your medical license now.
