Replying to @S_Pesch
One needs those trained in "both techniques" in formal radiology and stroke neurology too; we hope your department has them. Does it matter that radiologist Söderman pioneered radiosurgery for AVMs or Moniz performed cerebral angiography? This @ThiemeIntl preface says it well.

In EVT treated M2 occlusion stroke, larger Tmax >4 s perfusion deficit was associated with worse 90-day functional outcomes. Tmax >4 s volume >113 mL best discriminated outcomes. MAD-MT study by @vsyedavalli @NANConsortium doi.org/10.3174/ajnr.A9416

Overcoming challenging anatomy to achieve endovascular success, this case demonstrates accessing the posterior cerebral circulation through the thyrocervical trunk. Check it out: neuroircases.com/articles/10…

A ‘never event’: wrong side cerebral angiogram Pt had R MCA occlusion. Thrombectomy planned. In angio, got a LICA injection, clot absent, assumed due to thrombolytics, procedure ended. Error discovered, pt returned to angio at delay for R thrombectomy. oxfordmail.co.uk/news/232576…

ICYMI: CME available for #Stroke article "Stenting Versus Medical Therapy for Symptomatic Intracranial Artery Stenosis: Long-Term Follow-Up of a Randomized Trial." #AHAJournals ahajournals.org/doi/cme/10.1… @DrLiqunJiao @AdamDmytriw @MassGeneralC

#STROKE: Long-term follow-up of the #CASSISS trial presented at #ESOC2024 shows that the addition of stenting to medical therapy does not confer additional benefits to medical therapy alone in patients with symptomatic severe ICAS. #AHAJournals ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.…

"Compared with conventional guide catheters, the use of balloon guide catheters led to worse functional recovery in patients receiving endovascular thrombectomy for intracranial large vessel occlusion." Has been a long time coming; there was a lot of unfounded dogma to surmount.

One of the 🔑 to DMVO is selection and deficit. Check out what MAD-MT brings to the isolated the PCA occlusion literature 👀 @neurovascu_lab @NANConsortium
Is EVT better than MM for treating isolated PCA #strokes? 🤔Find out in our latest study published in the European Stroke Journal. Huge thanks to Dr. Benjamin Pulli, @vsyedavalli, @AdamDmytriw & @GuenegoAdrien for leading this important work! 🙌 journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…

MCA bifurcation aneurysms can be readily clipped and endovascular treatment is controversial. Our #WorldWideWEB study suggests aneurysms ≤ 6.1 mm in width and ≤ 4.6 mm in neck size are well-suited to WEB treatment. @NimerAdeeb @AdamDmytriw thejns.org/view/journals/j-n…
