Texture analysis of computed tomography images of acute ischemic stroke patients.
Computed tomography (CT) images are routinely used to assess ischemic brain stroke in the acute phase. They can provide important clues about whether to treat the patient by thrombolysis with tissue plasminogen activator. However, in the acute phase, the lesions may be difficult to detect in the images using standard visual analysis. The objective of the present study was to determine if textur...
متن کاملAutomatic interpretation of 4D computed tomography images in acute stroke
Strokes—caused by a disturbance of blood supply to the brain— are a leading cause of death and disability worldwide.1 In the majority of cases, strokes are caused by a blockage of the blood supply (known as an ischemic stroke), but another type of stroke (hemorrhagic stroke) is caused by the rupture of a vessel or aneurysm. Strokes can result in soft tissue damage and loss of brain function. Tr...
متن کاملdysphagia in acute ischemic stroke
Introduction: Swallowing dysfunction complicates acute strokes in 25-32% of cases and directly affects patientschr('39') prognosis and recovery. Dysphagia complicates the course of acute strokes through its potential of the development of chest infection, nutritional problems, and dehydration. Dysphagia is also an independent predictor of respiratory morbidity and mortality in acute stroke. In...
متن کاملPrevalence of Idiopathic Osteosclerosis on Cone Beam Computed Tomography Images
Objectives: This study was performed to investigate the prevalence of idiopathic osteosclerosis on cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images of patients. Methods: In this descriptive, cross-sectional study, 240 CBCT scans of patients (125 women, 115 men) referred to a private oral and maxillofacial radiology clinic in Tehran in 2013 were selected and evaluated. Presence of idiopathic osteosc...
متن کاملAn Optimization of System for Automatic Recognition of Ischemic Stroke Areas in Computed Tomography Images
The paper considers application of stochastic optimization to system of automatic recognition of ischemic stroke area on computed tomography (CT) images. The algorithm of recognition depends on five inputs that influence the results of automatic detection. The quality of recognition is measured by size of conjunction of ethalone image and the image calculated by the program of automatic detecti...
