Background and Purpose— Mechanical thrombectomy may involve multiple attempts to
retrieve the occluding thrombus. This study examined the composition of thrombus fragments …

Background Initial studies investigating correlations between stroke etiology and clot
composition are conflicting and do not account for clot size as determined by area. Radiological …

Purpose To identify factors influencing outcome in brain arteriovenous malformations (BAVM)
treated with endovascular embolization. We also assessed the feasibility of using machine …

Both intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and mechanical thrombectomy (MT) are evidence-based
treatments for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in selected cases. Recanalization may occur …

Background Mechanical thrombectomy is the standard of care for acute ischemic strokes with
proximal intracranial occlusion. Arterial access is commonly achieved with femoral artery …

Background and Purpose: Quantitating the effect of intravenous alteplase on the technical
outcome of early recanalization of large vessel occlusions aids understanding. We report the …

Background and purpose There is still much debate whether bridging-therapy [intravenous
thrombolysis (IVT) prior to mechanical thrombectomy (MT)] might be beneficial compared to …

Introduction In ischaemic stroke care, fast reperfusion is essential for disability free survival.
It is unknown if bypassing thrombolysis centres in favour of endovascular thrombectomy (…

Background and aims Platelets and von Willebrand factor (vWF) are key factors in thrombosis
and thus are likely key components of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) emboli. We aimed to …

Orbital pathology often presents a diagnostic challenge to the reporting radiologist. The
aetiology is protean, and clinical input is therefore often necessary to narrow the differential …
