Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability. Navigating evolving technology is essential to providing the safest and most effective treatment available. Are CT and MRI of similar value when triaging acute stroke patients? What differences do studies show between using transradial and transfemoral access for stroke intervention? How do ADAPT, stent retriever, and combination mechanical thrombectomy techniques compare as reperfusion therapies?
