Intraoperative contrast-enhanced cone beam CT allows visualization of the ‘dark side’ of the clot and improves mechanical thrombectomy performance
CE-CBCT localizes the clot and reveals the underlying vascular anatomy better than 3DRA or DSA, thereby enhancing the efficacy of MT. The improved filling of collaterals with CE-CBCT may explain this better visualization of the 'dark side' of the clot.
