The benefit of endovascular treatment (EVT) for patients with low Alberta Stroke Program early computed tomography score (ASPECTS) is still ambiguous and is currently being investigated in randomized trials. Computed tomography (CT) perfusion, used to estimate infarct extent and progression, might predict early neurological improvement (ENI) after EVT. We hypothesized that the degree of relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV) reduction is directly associated with ENI in low ASPECTS patients undergoing EVT.
