mTICI: modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction; ADAPT: a direct aspiration first-pass technique; MR CLEAN: Multicenter Randomized Clinical Trial of Endovascular treatment for Acute ischemic stroke in the Netherlands; ESCAPE: Endovascular treatment for Small Core and Anterior circulation Proximal occlusion with Emphasis on minimizing CT to recanalization times; NASA: North American Solitaire Stent Retriever Acute Stroke.
