Urgent evaluation of patients with acute ischemic stroke allows for a comprehensive assessment of management options. These include thrombolysis and thrombectomy, depending on symptom onset and severity, the presumed location of the occlusion, and patient comorbidities and potential for improvement. For patients who present within 4.5 hours of onset of
