Methods and systems for treatment of acute ischemic stroke

This invention describes a medical system designed to treat acute strokes by removing blood clots from brain arteries. It uses a specialized catheter inserted through the neck to reach the brain's blood vessels. The claims specifically detail a catheter with an inner wire designed to prevent a size mismatch as it navigates the delicate intracranial vasculature.
