People who have been or will be treated with the Embotrap II device to remove blood clots to try to restore blood flow to the brain are being asked to participate in the EXCELLENT registry. This registry will collect and analyze the blood clots removed from the brain with the Embotrap II to study the different types of clots that cause stroke.
