A novel grading scale based on the degree of angiographic filling and contrast stasis is proposed that will facilitate communication and standardize reporting of outcomes following flow diversion treatments.
Abstract
Flow diverting stents are emerging as a treatment option for difficult intracranial aneurysms. Current grading scales for assessment of angiographic outcomes following aneurysm treatment do not apply to aneurysms treated by flow diversion. We propose a novel grading scale based on the degree of angiographic filling and contrast stasis. This scale will facilitate communication and standardize reporting of outcomes following flow diversion treatments.
