New #publication alert! How do #strokes occur independent of degree of carotid artery stenosis? Can the mechanical force of blood cause plaque disruption leading to #stroke?🤔 Check out our latest publication which answers these very pertinent questions! dx.doi.org/10.1136/svn-20…

New set of eyes for neurointerventionalists! @SavastanoLuisMD presenting our work on Laser Angioscope in diagnosis and treatment of #carotid #disease at @WLNC2020 #WLNC2022 @VerAvanti

Check out our latest paper on the use of #OCT in #carotid #interventions for #stroke in @INR_WFITN. R&D of new intravascular technologies is another area of expertise of our lab. Have a look! doi.org/10.1177/159101… @OushyMD @SavastanoLuisMD @WBrinjikji @GLanzinoNSGY

@WBrinjikji @JNIS_BMJ @SavastanoLuisMD @GLanzinoNSGY @OushyMD @JLarco8 @MehAbbasi @MadhaniSarosh Thank you!

Give up #neurotwitter? Well the correct answer is: a human cadaveric model! Go check out our recently published paper @JNIS_BMJ which presents this novel model for #mechanical #thrombectomy in #stroke. Let us know what you think in the comments! dx.doi.org/10.1136/neurin…

Hey #neurotwitter, here's a little trivia. Where do you think is the #mechanical #thrombectomy happening in the video below: 1. A glass phantom 2. A silicone phantom 3. A large animal model 4. A human cadaveric model 5. A patient with LVO Let us know in the comments! #Stroke

Hey #NeuroTwitter did you miss us? Well here is a comeback post with our recent work on a new approach to the classic #CEA surgery. Looking to obtain high quality atheroma specimens? This approach is definitely for you! #stroke #Neurosurgery doi.org/10.1016/j.wneu…
