Semi-automated measurement of vascular tortuosity and its implications for mechanical thrombectomy performance.

Purpose: Few studies have examined the geometry of endovascular mechanical thrombectomy pathways. Here we examine the tortuosity and angulations of catheter pathways from the aortic arch to the termination of the internal carotid artery (ICA) and its association with thrombectomy performance. Method...
