Defining carotid near-occlusion with full collapse: a pooled analysis.
Elias JohanssonThomas GuAllan J FoxPublished in: Neuroradiology (2021)
Defining near-occlusion with full collapse as distal ICA diameter ≤ 2.0 mm and/or ICA ratio ≤ 0.42 seems to yield better prognostic discrimination than the traditional appearance-based definition. This novel definition can be used in prognostic and treatment studies of near-occlusion with full collapse.
