For acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with large vessel occlusions, clinicians must decide if the benefit of mechanical thrombectomy (MTB) outweighs the risks and potential complications following an invasive procedure. Pre-treatment…
Cerebrovascular accident (CVA) or stroke is the rapid loss of brain function due to disturbance in the blood supply to the brain. Statistically, stroke is the second leading cause of death. This has motivated us to suggest a two-tier system…
Stroke is the second most frequent cause of death world wide with an annual mortality of around 5.5 million. Recurrence rates of stroke are between 5 and 25% in the first year. As mortality rates for relapses are extraordinarily high (40%)…
A stroke is defined as a neurologic deficit arising from an interruption in blood supply to the brain. According to the World Health Organization, over 15 million people suffer from strokes annually, of which almost 70% die or are…
The accurate understanding of ischemic stroke lesions is critical for efficient therapy and prognosis of stroke patients. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is sensitive to acute ischemic stroke and is a common diagnostic method for stroke.…
Stroke is the second leading cause of mortality worldwide. Immediate attention and diagnosis play a crucial role regarding patient prognosis. The key to diagnosis consists in localizing and delineating brain lesions. Standard stroke…
Every year in the United States, 800,000 individuals suffer a stroke - one person every 40 seconds, with a death occurring every four minutes. While individual factors vary, certain predictors are more prevalent in determining stroke risk.…
Stroke remains a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality, imposing a heavy socioeconomic burden. Advances in endovascular reperfusion therapy and CT and MR imaging for treatment guidance have significantly improved patient outcomes.…
Strokes are still one of the leading causes for death after heart diseases and cancer in all over the world. Most strokes happen because an artery that carries blood uphill from the heart to the head gets clogged. Most of the time, as with…
Stroke remains one of the most critical global health challenges, ranking as the second leading cause of death and the third leading cause of disability worldwide. This study explores the effectiveness of machine learning algorithms in…
Arteriosclerosis results from lipid buildup in artery walls, leading to plaque formation, and is a leading cause of death. Plaque rupture can cause blood clots that might lead to a stroke. Distinguishing plaque types is a challenge, but…
Stroke is the second leading cause of death and the third leading cause of disability worldwide. Clinical guidelines establish diffusion resonance imaging (DWI, ADC) as the standard for localizing, characterizing, and measuring infarct…
Cerebral stroke, the second most substantial cause of death universally, has been a primary public health concern over the last few years. With the help of machine learning techniques, early detection of various stroke alerts is accessible,…
Stroke is among the top three causes of death worldwide, and accurate identification of ischemic stroke lesion boundaries from imaging is critical for diagnosis and treatment. The main imaging modalities used include magnetic resonance…
A stroke occurs when an artery in the brain ruptures and bleeds or when the blood supply to the brain is cut off. Blood and oxygen cannot reach the brain's tissues due to the rupture or obstruction resulting in tissue death. The Middle…
Ischaemic stroke is a medical condition caused by occlusion of blood supply to the brain tissue thus forming a lesion. A lesion is zoned into a core associated with irreversible necrosis typically located at the center of the lesion, while…
Ischemic stroke is a common disease in the elderly population, which can cause long-term disability and even death. However, the time window for treatment of ischemic stroke in its acute stage is very short. To fast localize and…
Ischemia leading to heart attacks and strokes is the major cause of deaths in the world. Whether an occlusion occurs or not, depends on the ability of a growing thrombus to resist forces exerted on its structure. This manuscript provides…
Acute stroke lesion segmentation tasks are of great clinical interest as they can help doctors make better informed treatment decisions. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is time demanding but can provide images that are considered gold…
Machine learning can be used to analyse physiological data for several purposes. Detection of cerebral ischemia is an achievement that would have high impact on patient care. We attempted to study if collection of continous physiological…
