CT angiography clot burden score and collateral score: correlation with clinical and radiologic outcomes in acute middle cerebral artery infarct
IYL Tan, AM Demchuk, J Hopyan… - American Journal …, 2009 - Am Soc Neuroradiology

Impact of collaterals on the efficacy and safety of endovascular treatment in acute ischaemic stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Objective We aimed to investigate the role of pretreatment collateral status in predicting the
efficacy and safety of endovascular treatment (EVT) in acute ischaemic stroke due to cervical …

Relevance of the cerebral collateral circulation in ischaemic stroke: time is brain, but collaterals set the pace
Blood supply to the brain is secured by an extensive collateral circulation system, which can
be divided into primary routes, ie, the Circle of Willis, and secondary routes, eg, collaterals …
