- Perspectives from the Inaugural “Spinal CSF Leak: Bridging the Gap” Conference: A Convergence of Clinical and Patient Expertise
The “Spinal CSF Leak: Bridging the Gap” Conference highlighted collective insights from a diverse cohort of clinicians, researchers, and patients. This manuscript discusses the clinical, diagnostic, and treatment challenges of spinal CSF leak, concluding that a collaborative, multidisciplinary care team needs to provide a standardized-yet-flexible diagnostic protocol to address the variability in clinical presentations and often-subtle radiographic findings.
- Association between CT Perfusion Parameters and Hemorrhagic Transformation after Endovascular Treatment in Acute Ischemic Stroke: Results from the ESCAPE-NA1 Trial
A total of 408 patients from the ESCAPE-NA1 trial were assessed for hemorrhagic transformation following endovascular treatment. At 24-hour follow-up imaging, the authors found that larger “core” volumes of relative CBF<30% were associated with an increased risk of parenchymal hemorrhage. In conjunction with other clinical and imaging variables, this metric may help estimate the risk of post-endovascular treatment hemorrhagic complications.
