Study design. Patients suspected with an acute stroke underwent clinical examination and a CT scan. If ischemic stroke was confirmed and the thrombolysis was unsuccessful, the patients received further therapy by mechanical thrombectomy. The thrombi retrieved from the MCA vessel segment were further analyzed by high spatial resolution multiparametric MRI and histology. Different parameters obtained from imaging (CT, MRI and histology) and the interventional procedure and treatment were then analyzed for possible correlations.
