Predictors of Intracranial Atherosclerotic Disease in Posterior Circulation: a Cohort Study

Status unconfirmed

Conditions studied: Stroke, Ischemic, Intracranial Atherosclerosis, Posterior Circulation Brain Infarction

In brief

Early identification of intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) may impact the management of patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy (MT). The aim of the study is to develop and validate a scoring system for pre-thrombectomy diagnosis of ICAD in posterior circulation large vessel/distal medium vessel occlusion strokes (LVOs/DMVOs).
