Modeling diffusion-weighted imaging lesion expansion between 2 and 24 h after endovascular thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke

ConclusionWe observed substantial lesion expansion post-EVT whereby relative lesion expansion was consistent across eTICI categories, and greater absolute lesion expansion was associated with worse clinical outcome. Our findings suggest that alternate endpoints for cerebroprotectant trials may be feasible.
