Abstract
Early endovascular thrombectomy leads to improved outcomes for patients with proximal occlusions when started within 6 h from onset of symptoms. We present a case illustrating the flow of events for a patient who underwent endovascular thrombectomy in our centre after conventional imaging - a brain non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) and CT angiogram (CTA) - achieving a door-to-groin time of 195 min. The patient is a 65-year-old who presented with signs and symptoms of a left middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory infarct. His National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was 15 on presentation and his brain NCCT showed an Alberta Stroke Programme Early CT Score (ASPECTS) of 8. His CTA showed a left MCA distal M1 occlusion with focal calcification and stenosis of the proximal left internal carotid artery. He was subsequently thrombosed and underwent thrombectomy successfully, with a door-to-groin-puncture time of 195 min. A TICI 2b reperfusion was achieved. His NIHSS score improved to 9 over the next 2 days. For cases with straightforward NCCT and CTA with no contraindications, endovascular thrombectomy should be pursued without delay. A review of the current available literature for the usage of NCCT and CTA as well as the importance of ASPECTS scoring in patient selection for endovascular thrombectomy was included.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
