• Description: Recanalization is associated with a 4 fold increase in good outcomes in acute ischemic stroke. CTA has become the clinical and research standard of cerebrovascular assessment. Currently, there is no validated standardized CTA recanalization scoring system. Purpose: We aimed to develop a CTA-based recanalization scale, and test the reliability of its components.
