Our preliminary experience with dRA access for CAS suggests this approach to be feasible and safe for patients. Technical considerations are important and preprocedural planning is necessary for a successful intervention. Catheter systems and devices specifically designed for radial access are needed to enable more interventionalists to safely perform neurointerventional procedures via wrist access.
