Thrombi retrieved from patients with acute ischemic stroke are highly heterogeneous.
Recent data suggest that thrombus composition may impact on mechanical thrombectomy …

Background and purpose Studying the imaging and histopathologic characteristics of
thrombi in ischemic stroke could provide insights into stroke etiology and ideal treatment …

Ischemic stroke is caused by a thromboembolic occlusion of cerebral arteries. Treatment is
focused on fast and efficient removal of the occluding thrombus, either via intravenous …

Introduction We related composition of cerebral thrombi to stroke subtype and attenuation on
non-contrast CT (NCCT) to gain more insight in etiopathogenesis and to validate thrombus …

We evaluated the composition of individual clots retrieved during intra-arterial thrombectomy
in relation to recanalization success, stroke subtype, and the presence of clot signs on initial …

Background Hemorrhagic transformation (HT) following reperfusion therapies for acute
ischaemic stroke often predicts a poor prognosis. This systematic review and meta-analysis …

Background and Purpose—If a relationship between stroke etiology and thrombus
computed tomography characteristics exists, assessing these characteristics in clinical …

Background Thrombus characteristics, including Hounsfield unit (HU) value to measure
density and thrombus volume and length, can predict successful recanalization following IV …

Acute stroke therapy has significantly evolved over the last two decades. The two main
advances have been the approval of intravenous chemical thrombolysis in 1995, and the …

Background The first-pass effect (FPE) has emerged as a key metric for efficacy in
mechanical thrombectomy (MT). The hyperdense vessel sign (HDVS) on non-contrast head …
