Ever wondered what a stent looks like? Dr. Matthew Smith shows how tiny stents and balloons can open blocked vessels in the brain and restore blood flow with minimally invasive care.

Very interesting results - HOB flat (vs 30 deg) until EVT for patients with LVO helps reduce early neurological worsening. As @AnneAlexandrov presented, HOB flat can be considered a rescue procedure - a temporizing maneuver until EVT.
