Description

Vera Aebischer and co-authors ask, in a 2026 conference abstract, whether scan traits can pick out stroke patients who gain from clot retrieval in smaller vessels. Their parent trial found no overall benefit for the procedure in such strokes. Averages, though, can hide subgroups that do benefit.

The team reanalyzed 455 trial patients with high-quality perfusion imaging. Measures included the dead core's size, the starved region's size, and the mismatch between them. A ratio graded how intense the starvation was. If imaging flags the right patients, a negative trial could still rescue a targeted therapy. The analysis tests that rescue hypothesis with data the trial already holds.
