Abstract:
Stroke is a devastating disease that affects millions of people worldwide. Stroke and vascular neuroscience are rapidly growing fields that aim to provide effective treatments for stroke and similar pathologies. Neurointervention, a subspecialty of neurosciences, offers minimally invasive therapy for vascular lesions of the central nervous system, which can help with stroke and related conditions. The resources, techniques, and indications of intervention therapy are rapidly expanding and becoming more diverse. This talk will provide an overview of stroke, its pathophysiology, and current management options, as well as the data behind treatment options. Additionally, it will cover various materials used in neurointerventional procedures, providing a basic understanding of the specialty. A better understanding of the pathology and goals helps advance the specialty and improve patient outcomes.
