  • This approach may offer improved recanalization rates compared to intravenous methods.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the technique and interpretation of findings in intra-arterial thrombolysis for acute stroke.
  • To emphasize patient selection criteria to mitigate risks such as intracranial hemorrhage.

Main Methods:

  • Description of procedural techniques for intra-arterial thrombolysis.
  • Emphasis on interpreting imaging and clinical features for patient selection and therapeutic guidance.

Main Results:
