Value of Thrombus Imaging Characteristics as a Guide for First‐Line Endovascular Thrombectomy Device in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke

Our study does not provide evidence that the association between first-line thrombectomy device and endovascular thrombectomy outcomes depends on thrombus CT characteristics. Based on our results, there are no arguments for thrombectomy device selection based on thrombus CT characteristics. A possible better performance of CA in low-density, fibrin-rich clots needs further study.
