Abstract:
Stroke seriously endangers people's life and health because of its high prevalence, disability and recurrence rate. Among them, large vessel occlusive stroke (LVOS) has the worst outcome. Rapid recovery of cerebral perfusion is the key to improve the outcomes of patients with LVOS. As a new type of treatment, endovascular treatment can effectively recanalize the occluded blood vessels and extend the treatment time window. The level of collateral circulation determines the severity of symptoms, treatment choices, treatment effects and outcomes in patients with LVOS. This article summarizes the clinical factors related to collateral circulation compensation in patients with LVOS, and focuses on the application value of imaging technology in the evaluation of collateral circulation.
