⚡ New #OpenAccess in JNIS
The THUNDER study evaluates computer-assisted vacuum thrombectomy with modulated aspiration for LVO stroke.
📊 87.5% mTICI 2b–3
⚡ 64.8% first-pass mTICI 2b–3
⏱️ 20 min median to revascularization
🧠 sICH 0.9%

Does bigger bore always mean better thrombectomy performance?
The first multicenter real-world experience with SOFIA 88 highlights the importance of catheter deliverability, with 82.7% target access and 97.5% final successful reperfusion.

Can a liquid embolic adapt as it flows?
First-in-human results with NeoCast, a solvent-free, non-adhesive, shear-responsive embolic biomaterial:
🧠 100% target-vessel occlusion
🎯 89±7% tumor devascularization
✅ No non-target embolization
✅ No microcatheter entrapment
A promising first step for next-generation liquid embolics.

Can we reduce radiation in cerebral FDCT without compromising what we see? 🧠☢️
Adding a 0.1 mm copper filter reduced radiation exposure by 25.9% while preserving image quality and intracranial hemorrhage detection.
A simple modification with meaningful dose-saving potential.

Radial or femoral for stroke thrombectomy?
In >6,300 patients, TRA and TFA achieved similar recanalization and functional outcomes.
But the trade-off matters:
⬇️ Access-site complications with TRA: 3.4% vs 7.5%
⬆️ Access failure: 6.99% vs 2.18%

What can 7 prospective trials tell us about WEB treatment? 🧠
The WISE Study pooled the largest prospectively collected, adjudicated WEB dataset to date.
At 1 year:
🔹 82.8% adequate occlusion
🔹 2.5% retreatment
🔹 0.5% treatment-related morbidity
🔹 No treated aneurysm ruptures

Why do some aneurysms remain patent after flow diversion? 🧠
In 185 aneurysms, branch involvement was the strongest predictor of incomplete occlusion.
But not all branches behaved alike—accounting for collateral circulation improved prediction scores.

Is bigger always better in aspiration thrombectomy?
Dr. Michael Chen talks with Dr. Marc Ribo about super-large-bore catheters in LVO stroke: high thrombus access, promising reperfusion—but FPE remains ~55%.
