Neuromodulation is the alteration of neural activity in the central, peripheral, or autonomic nervous systems. Consequently, this term lends itself to a variety of organ systems including but not limited to the cardiac, nervous, and even gastrointestinal systems. In this review, we provide a primer on neuromodulation, examining the various technological systems employed and neurological disorders targeted with this technology. Ultimately, we undergo a historical analysis of the field's development, pivotal discoveries and inventions gearing this review to neuro-adjacent subspecialties with a specific focus on neurointerventionalists.

Introduction: Transradial approach (TRA) is a new technique proposed for performing cerebral angiography and neuro-interventional procedures. In this article, we sought to provide a step-by-step guide for carrying out a diagnostic cerebral angiography using this approach and summarize our center's experience.
Material And Methods: Records of patients since January 2020 were investigated, and data on demographic indices, reports of the procedures, outcomes, and complications were extracted.

The placement of cervical and intracranial stents requires the administration of antiplatelet drugs to prevent thromboembolic complications. Ticagrelor has emerged as the most widely used alternative in clopidogrel non-responders owing to its potent antiplatelet effects. Because ticagrelor does not require hepatic activation, many neurointerventionalists choose to forgo laboratory testing of platelet inhibition.

Background: Venous stenting (VS) for venous sinus stenosis in the setting of idiopathic intracranial hypertension has been increasing in acceptance by neurointerventionalists. Stent-adjacent stenosis (SAS) and in-stent stenosis leading to symptom recurrence and the need for retreatment are known delayed complications. However, the effect of the dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) duration on these complications has remained poorly characterized.

Introduction: The purpose of this study is to report on a multi-center experience of ruptured intracranial aneurysms treated in acute phase with stent-assisted coil embolization, including primary success rates and midterm follow-up results.
Materials And Methods: Retrospective analysis was performed on a sample of 40 patients (14 men, 26 women, mean age 59.7 years) affected by ruptured saccular aneurysms and treated by stent-assisted coiling in acute phase; double antiplatelet therapy with clopidogrel bisulphate and acetylsalicylic acid was started after the procedure.
