Early computed tomography-based scores to predict decompressive hemicraniectomy after endovascular therapy in acute ischemic stroke.

Early computed tomography-based scores to predict decompressive hemicraniectomy after endovascular therapy in acute ischemic stroke.

BACKGROUND:Identification of patients requiring decompressive hemicraniectomy (DH) after endovascular therapy (EVT) is crucial as clinical signs are not reliable and early DH has been shown to improve clinical outcome. The aim of our study was to identify imaging-based scores to predict the risk for...
