Objective This study aimed to examine the effect of drug-coated balloons (DCBs) on vascular luminal dilatational remodeling (VLDR) following simple balloon angioplasty. Methods A retrospective cohort ...

Background Venous vascular malformations (VVMs) are congenital vascular anomalies, often impacting quality of life due to discomfort, swelling, and functional impairments. This study evaluates the ...

Background Post-stroke epilepsy (PSE) is a major complication of stroke. However, data about the predictors of PSE in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) undergoing mechanical thrombectomy are ...

Background Intracranial dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are rare lesions, making it challenging to fully understand and improve their management. Globally, only two major large-scale studies have ...

Background Blood urea/creatinine (U/Cr) ratio is considered to be an ideal biomarker of dehydration. We investigated the association between the U/Cr ratio trajectory and delayed cerebral ischemia ...

Background The development of safe and effective endovascular devices is dependent on accurate simulation of anticipated use environments during preclinical testing. We sought to optimize and evaluate ...

Background A study was undertaken to determine the typical length, diameter and taper of vessels in the anterior cerebral circulation. Methods The sample size was calculated at 100 patients based on ...

Background In contrast to conventional CT perfusion (CTP) imaging, flat panel detector CT perfusion (FD-CTP) imaging can be acquired directly in the angiosuite. Objective To evaluate time-resolved ...

Introduction India faces a substantial challenge in the management of stroke, a leading cause of mortality with risk factors amplified by lifestyle and environmental factors. This study aims to ...

Introduction The LVIS Blue is an FDA-approved stent with 28% metallic coverage that is indicated for use in conjunction with coil embolization for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Given a ...

Background Transcranial Doppler (TCD) is a non-invasive, bedside tool that allows for real-time monitoring of the patient’s hemodynamic status following mechanical thrombectomy (MT). This systematic ...

Introduction Infectious intracranial aneurysms (IIAs) are rare but serious complications of systemic infections, particularly infective endocarditis. These aneurysms are prone to rupture, leading to ...
