Pipeline shield reduces diffusion-weighted imaging-detected ischemia after intracranial aneurysm treatment compared with pipeline flex: a propensity score-matched retrospective cohort study
After adjusting for confounders, the PED Shield group had significantly fewer post-procedure DWI-positive lesions than the PED Flex group, suggesting that phosphorylcholine surface modification technology may reduce thrombogenicity in real-world clinical practice.
