      The Impact of Arterial Collateralization on Outcome after Intra-Arterial Therapy for Acute Ischemic Stroke
      S. Seeta Ramaiah, L. Churilov, P. Mitchell, R. Dowling and B. Yan
      American Journal of Neuroradiology April 2014, 35 (4) 667-672; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3174/ajnr.A3862

      The presence of poor leptomeningeal collaterals as assessed by CTA was correlated with patient outcome after receiving intra-arterial treatment for stroke. Functional outcomes in 87 patients with MCA and/or ICA occlusions were retrospectively assessed at 3 months. The authors found that poor arterial collateralization was associated with poor outcome after adjustment for recanalization success. They recommend that future studies include collateral scores as one of the predictors of functional outcome.

      Attitudes about Medical Malpractice: An American Society of Neuroradiology Survey

      An email survey yielded over 900 responses from neuroradiologists with regard to their experiences and attitudes about the medicolegal environment. Nearly one-half of neuroradiologists had been sued once, while over 10% had been sued more than 3 times with payouts in the range of US $50,000–$150,000 and up to $1.2 million for lawsuits affecting interventional neuroradiologists. Over 80% of neuroradiologists opined that the system was weighted toward plaintiffs and nearly 20% expressed being extremely concerned about being sued.
