are you sure that’s what stenting is? cause where i’m from, stenting is putting in an actual physical stent to hold open the artery so clots can dislodge and dissolve naturally without catching on the internal elastic lamina, although i admit the ones i know about are optimized for cardiovascular tissue and not so much for brains
