DOI: 10.1007/s00062-020-00985-0
Abstract: Despite advancement in mechanical thrombectomy (MT) techniques, 10–30% of MT for large vessel occlusions (LVO) are unsuccessful. Current prediction models fail to address the association between patient-specific factors and reperfusion. We aimed to evaluate objective,… read more here.
