Reperfusion by Combined Thrombolysis and Mechanical Thrombectomy in Acute Stroke: Effect of Collateralization Mismatch and Time to and Grade of Recanalization on Clinical and Tissue Outcome

摘要

Our research focuses on interventional neuroradiology (stroke treatment including imaging methods) and general neuroimaging with an emphasis on functional MR imaging. Our aim was to determine the efficacy of revascularization (TIMI) of middle cerebral and/or carotid artery occlusion by means of mechanical recanalization techniques and to evaluate the impact of collateralization, mismatch in perfusion CT, time to revascularization, grade of revascularization on tissue, and clinical outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
