Official Title

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

Brief Summary

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).

• Stroke, Ischemic
• Intracranial Atherosclerosis
• Posterior Circulation Brain Infarction

• we are aiming to develop a Scoring system based on certain variables derived from both groups
