Abstract:
This article is focused on development of a tool supporting physicians with an appropriate treatment decisions at patients with acute ischemic stroke. The automated tools for infarction core area delineation could provide important information about the volume of the infarction core. This article describes such automated method results used on both cerebral and perfusion blood volume computed tomography maps compared with manual infarction core delineations made by two physicians.
