Chinese Consensus Statement on the Evaluation and Intervention of Collateral Circulation for Ischemic Stroke.
CONCLUSION: Assessment of collateral circulation is crucial for selecting therapeutic options, predicting infarction volume and making prognosis after ischemic stroke. Data is still needed to provide therapeutic evidence for many new developed technologies. Until more evidence is available, the clinical significance of applying the new technologies is unclear and perhaps limited.
