  2. Abstract

This is the protocol for a review and there is no abstract. The objectives are as follows:

  1. To quantify the potential benefits of sonothrombolysis in the treatment of acute ischaemic stroke.
  2. To quantify the potential harms of sonothrombolysis in terms of cerebral bleeding (both haemorrhagic transformation and cerebral haemorrhage).
