Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: - A clinical diagnosis of acute ischemic stroke - Age 18 years or older - Treated with EVT for a large vessel occlusion of the anterior circulation (intracranial carotid artery or middle cerebral artery (M1 segment or M2 segment) confirmed by neuroimaging (CTA or MRA) resulting in a successful recanalization (defined as eTICI >= 2B) - Written informed consent obtained
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: - Pre-stroke disability which interferes with assessment of functional outcome at 90 days, i.e. mRS >2 - Contraindication(s) for MRI (e.g. claustrophobia, pacemaker, metallic implant, known contrast allergy) - Clinical condition unsuited for MRI imaging or prolonged stay at the Radiology department (e.g. agitation and restlessness, neurologic deterioration) - Use of general anesthesia during EVT
