Perfusion recovery on TTP maps after endovascular stroke treatment might predict favorable neurological outcomes.

• A large amount of perfusion recovery on TTP map is associated with favorable outcome and early neurological improvement after EVT. • The best cutoff value for favorable functional outcome was 68 mL for post-EVT TTP hypoperfused volume and 56 mL decrease for TTP hypoperfused volume. • Amount of perfusion recovery on TTP map has better performance on the prediction of favorable functional recovery and early neurological improvement than other diffusion- and perfusion-weighted MRI parameters and recanalization grades.
