Expert Rev Cardiovasc Ther. 2009;7(1):29-48. These examples show that the rate of neuronal loss may vary by a factor of at least 200 in patients with major artery occlusions. Thus, for many ...

Objective: To define predictors of recanalisation and clinical outcome of patients with acute basilar artery occlusions treated with local intra-arterial thrombolysis (IAT). Methods: Vascular risk ...

7. Ezzeldin M, Ota R, Riha E, et al. Use of angled-tip aspiration catheters is associated with a lower cost of thrombectomy in patients with acute ischemic stroke secondary to large and medium vessel ...

Basilar artery occlusion (BAO) is a rare but catastrophic stroke associated with elevated morbidity and mortality rates. 1 The clinical manifestations of BAO can vary widely, ranging from mild and ...

UC Berkeley scientists have developed a magnetic resonance imaging technique that tracks blood through the brain’s veins back ...

New Approaches to Bedside Monitoring in Stroke Alma Cyrous; Brandon O'Neal; W David Freeman Disclosures Expert Rev Neurother. 2012;12 (8):915-928. Expert Commentary ...

A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed images of the organs and tissues within the body. MRI can help with viewing injuries, tumors ...

Objective To improve early diagnosis of patients who have basilar artery occlusion (BAO) and to provide evidence for treatment decisions based on clinical characteristics, treatment strategies, and ...

The optimal treatment of acute large vessel occlusion with concomitant extracranial steno‐occlusive disease of the internal carotid artery remains unclear. The PICASSO (Proximal Internal Carotid ...

A brain MRI, performed within 12 h from the onset of clinical signs, revealed a large area of restricted diffusion, almost undetectable in the other MRI sequences, encompassing the vascular territory ...

Background— Large areas of restricted diffusion in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory are highly predictive of severe and potentially space-occupying MCA stroke. A reduction of ...
