— Evidence & innovation
Stroke care is evolving rapidly.
Major advances in evidence, technology, imaging, and systems of care are reshaping both stroke prevention and acute stroke intervention worldwide.
— Carotid stenting
The recently completed and published CREST-2 trial represents an important milestone in the evolving understanding of carotid artery disease and stroke prevention. Together with ongoing analyses, modern embolic protection systems, mesh-covered stents, improved imaging, and more refined patient selection strategies, these developments continue to improve procedural safety and clinical outcomes.
— Acute stroke intervention
For acute ischemic stroke, mechanical thrombectomy has become one of the most effective catheter-based therapies in modern medicine for appropriately selected patients with large vessel occlusion, with an extraordinary impact on disability reduction and functional recovery.
— Multidisciplinary care
At the same time, expanding access to modern stroke therapies remains an important global healthcare objective. Different healthcare systems have developed multidisciplinary models involving neuroradiologists, neurologists, vascular specialists, cardiologists, and integrated stroke teams working together to deliver timely and effective patient care.
— The ICCA approach
ICCA Stroke is designed as an international educational platform supporting this collaborative approach. The program combines contemporary evidence, practical case-based learning, live discussions, and hands-on education to help physicians and stroke teams further develop the knowledge, procedural skills, and interdisciplinary pathways required for modern stroke care.
