Redefining Infarction Size for Small-Vessel Occlusion in Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Retrospective Case–Control Study
Our findings suggest that setting the upper limit for small-vessel occlusion at 15 mm would be more effective in distinguishing it from BAD. However, these findings should be interpreted in the context of the retrospective design and study population. Further multi-center research utilizing high-resolution vessel wall imaging is necessary to refine this threshold and enhance diagnostic accuracy.
