Abstract:BACKGROUND:
A potential benefit of mechanical thrombectomy for patients with distal medium vessel occlusions is currently being investigated in randomized trials. Computed tomography perfusion imaging has not yet been tested as a method to guide mechanical thrombectomy for distal medium vessel occlusions. The purpose of this study was to assess penumbral imaging as an imaging-based method for triaging patients with ischemic stroke and acute M2-middle cerebral artery occlusion.
