About this trial
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).
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Adult ≥18 years
Patient with posterior circulation strokes who underwent mechanical thrombectomy.
Disqualifiers
Patients with anterior circulation stroke.
Patients with intracranial hemorrhage
Patients without baseline radiological data.
Extracranial large vessel atherosclerosis related strokes.
