Following the success of recent endovascular trials, endovascular therapy has emerged as
an exciting addition to the arsenal of clinical management of patients with acute ischemic …

Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is a rapid and non-invasive diagnostic technique that can
provide real-time measurements of the relative changes in cerebral blood velocity (CBV) …

Rationale: Cerebrovascular function is critical for brain health, and endogenous vascular
protective pathways may provide therapeutic targets for neurological disorders. S1P …

Background and Purpose—In the setting of acute ischemic stroke because of large-vessel
occlusion (LVO) there is progressive loss of brain tissue which occurs in a time-dependent …

Cerebral collateral circulation is a network of blood vessels which stabilizes blood flow and
maintains cerebral perfusion whenever the main arteries fail to provide an adequate blood …

Abstract Treatment of a large vessel occlusion in the acute ischemic stroke setting focuses
on vessel recanalization, and endovascular thrombectomy results in favorable outcomes in …

Background and Purpose—Thrombus characteristics and collateral score are associated
with functional outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke. It has been suggested that …

Background. Effective treatment of acute ischemic stroke requires reperfusion of
salvageable tissue. We investigated the predictors of penumbra salvage (PS) and infarct …

Ischemic stroke presents a major global economic and public health burden. Although
recent advances in available endovascular therapies show improved functional outcome, a …

Background Current imaging modalities underestimate the severity of intracranial
atherosclerotic disease (ICAD). High resolution vessel wall imaging (HR-VWI) MRI is a …
