Researchers at Royal Melbourne Hospital announced recently on the ABC News they had proved the
effectiveness of a new technique that almost doubles the chances patients will
walk out of hospital after stroke.
The researchers combined two types of stroke treatment with new technology to
improve the outcomes for people with the most severe form of stroke. Under the new approach, doctors used advanced brain imaging to identify which
parts of the brain were irreversibly damaged and which parts were
salvageable. They then used new stent technology to remove the clot.
