However, the size of the ischemic region before treatment is a significant factor in the outcome, and the optimal method for the evaluation of this region is uncertain. The goal of this study was to investigate apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values as a basis for an assessment of the ischemic region before treatment.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>\n                    : A retrospective study was performed in 48 consecutive patients who underwent EVT for acute large vessel occlusion (LVO) with Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score (ASPECTS) \u22645 from 2014 to 2022. Associations of clinical characteristics and ADC-related ischemic region volumes with a favorable outcome (modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 0\u20133 at 90\u00a0days) were examined.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>\n                    : The 48 patients had a median age of 78\u00a0years and a median NIHSS score of 23 at admission. Occlusion sites were the internal carotid artery (46%), M1 segment (46%), and M2 segment (8%). Specifically, 18 cases (38%) were mRS 0\u20133 and 30 (62%) mRS 4\u20136 at 90\u00a0days.
