If this is not #Evolution of neurosurgery, I don't know what it is. Thank you Dr. @EladLevyMD for once again leading the pack! @CNSResidents @CNS_Update @cvsection
What does the next frontier of neurosurgery look like? Increasingly, it is outpatient. At #CNS2026, join @EladLevyMD and leaders in the field for a symposium on the future of outpatient neurosurgery—exploring procedure selection, safety, technology, research, and sustainable practice models. The shift to ambulatory care is already underway. Help shape what comes next. 🔗 cns.org/2026 @CNS_Update #Neurosurgery #Innovation

The best surgical bypasses mimic nature’s design, like anterior & posterior communicating arteries in the circle of Willis, drawing flow on demand. Arteries that run parallel and in close proximity can be joined w/ side-to-side anastomosis to create an intracranial-to-intracranial bypass, like this A3-A3 construct…#SevenBypasses

Can we predict how a flow diverter will actually deploy before we deploy it? 🧠💻 In a real-world simulation-guided workflow, Ankyras closely predicted PED: 🎯 Deployed length: MAE 1.24 mm 📍 Proximal landing zone: MAE 1.34 mm 📈 Strong correlations: r=0.91 and 0.94 Virtual planning may be moving closer to real-world deployment. 🔗 bit.ly/4hXsoRS #JNIS #FlowDiversion #BrainAneurysm #Neurointervention

🎙️ New JNIS Podcast | AI in acute stroke Can an LLM make thrombectomy decisions at expert level? 🧠🤖 Dr. Michael Chen speaks with Dr. Aymen Meddeb about AI-assisted stroke triage. In 80 real-world AIS cases, the top-performing LLM achieved: ⚡ 87% MT accuracy 💉 78% IVT accuracy The bigger question: could LLMs support stroke decisions when specialist expertise is not immediately available? ▶️ Apple: apple.co/4xz8Xns ▶️ Spotify: bit.ly/4i8PV2C ▶️ Web: bit.ly/4ybvaI5 🔓 Paper: bit.ly/4qPLagx #JNIS #AI #Stroke #Thrombectomy #Neurointervention
