Radiation Exposure in the Acute Phase after Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in the Era of CT Perfusion
ConclusionThere is a  considerable imaging-related RE in aSAH patients. A meticulous decision-making process and imaging protocols with lower RE for the deployment of CT-based and fluoroscopy-based imaging is indicated in order to minimize the risk for radiation-mediated heath consequences in this patient population.

Stent-Based Retrieval Techniques in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients with and Without Susceptibility Vessel Sign
ConclusionWhile previous analyses indicated that first-line SR thrombectomy may promise higher rates of reperfusion than contact aspiration in AIS patients with SVS, our data show no superiority of any particular SR-based retrieval technique regardless of SVS status.

Age-dependent Intracranial Artery Morphology in Healthy Children
ConclusionThis study presents the first automated evaluation of intracranial vessel morphology on MRA across childhood. Our results can serve as a  framework for quantitative evaluation of cerebral vessel morphology in the setting of pediatric neurovascular diseases. (Source: Klinische Neuroradiologie)

NIHSS 24  h After Mechanical Thrombectomy Predicts 90-Day Functional Outcome
ConclusionAn NIHSS of 8 or less 24  h after MT was validated to serve as an independent, strong surrogate for favorable functional outcome; however, cofactors such as older age, higher baseline NIHSS and coexisting comorbidities appear to mitigate this clinical adjunct.

Magnetization Transfer Ratio of Peripheral Nerve and Skeletal Muscle
ConclusionPeripheral nerve MTR decreases with higher age and BMI. Studies that assess peripheral nerve MTR should consider age and BMI effects. Skeletal muscle MTR is primarily associated with BMI but overall less dependent on demographic variables. (Source: Klinische Neuroradiologie)

Flow Redirection Endoluminal Device (FRED) with or without Adjunctive Coiling in Treatment of Very Large and Giant Cerebral Aneurysms
ConclusionThe use of FRED/FRED Jr. for the treatment of aneurysms  ≥ 20 mm achieved a long-term aneurysm occlusion rate and a safety profile comparable to the large series reported with other flow diverter stents. (Source: Klinische Neuroradiologie)

“Shelf” Technique Using a Novel Braided Self-Expandable Stent for the Treatment of Wide-Necked Bifurcation Aneurysms
ConclusionThis study demonstrates the “shelf” technique with LVIS EVO stents as a feasible and safe treatment option for WNBAs with very good short-term occlusion rates. (Source: Klinische Neuroradiologie)

When Two Is Better than One
ConclusionThe buddy-wire is a  useful technique in FD procedures to prevent herniation of the microcatheter into the aneurysm sack, in wide-necked aneurysms to mitigate the ledge effect between the aneurysm neck and the parent artery where the microcatheter tip may get stuck, or to enable re-entry into a foreshortened FD.

Quantitative Assessment of Hyperdense Sign Measured by Hounsfield Units is Associated with Unsuccessful Mechanical Thrombectomy
ConclusionNovel radiological biomarkers on CT, CT angiography (CTA) and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) may help identify patients refractory to standard MT and prepare interventionalists for using additional alternative methods. Quantitative assessment of HU (delta and ratio) may be important in developing objective prediction tools for unsuccessful MT. (Source: Klinische Neuroradiologie)
