Key Points

This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of patient selection using perfusion imaging for endovascular thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke.
Performed a retrospective comparative analysis of outcomes for acute ischemic stroke patients
Compared those selected for EVT using perfusion software with those selected without it
Assessed clinical outcomes post-EVT
Patients selected using perfusion imaging had improved clinical outcomes compared to those without it
The analysis demonstrated significant differences in recovery rates following treatment

Abstract

Objective: Perfusion imaging is widely used in acute ischemic stroke to guide endovascular thrombectomy (EVT). This study evaluated clinical outcomes among patients selected for EVT using perfusion software-based analysis compared with those selected without it.
