All CTP core volume estimations showed robust correlation with DWI (Pearson p-value < 0.001). As core volume increased, CTP demonstrated increased deviation from DWI. At the critical cut-offs of 25 mL and 70 mL, relative CBF demonstrated the best agreement with DWI for infarct core compared to the other CTP-derived measures of infarct core. Conclusion: Our study demonstrates close approximation between multiple CTP-derived measures of infarct core and DWI infarct volume, Especially relative CBF.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 17:03:23 AEST ]]> A benchmarking tool to evaluate computer tomography perfusion infarct core predictions against a DWI standard https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:24301 Thu 28 Oct 2021 12:36:50 AEDT ]]> Acute stroke imaging research roadmap II https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:19652 12 months, with the final meeting occurring during the Stroke Treatment Academy Industry Roundtable (STAIR) on March 9 to 10, 2013, in Washington, DC. This process brought together vascular neurologists, neuroradiologists, neuroimaging research scientists, members of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, industry representatives, and members of the US Food and Drug Administration to discuss stroke imaging research priorities, especially in the light of the recent negative results of acute stroke clinical trials that tested the concept of penumbral imaging selection. The goal of this process was to propose a research roadmap for the next 5 years. STIR recommendations include (1) the use of standard terminology, aligned with the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke Common Data Elements. ; (2) a standardized imaging assessment of revascularization in acute ischemic stroke trials, including a modified Treatment In Cerebral Ischemia (mTICI) score. ; (3) a standardized process to assess whether ischemic core and penumbral imaging methods meet the requirements to be considered as an acceptable selection tool in acute ischemic stroke trials. ; (4) the characteristics of a clinical and imaging data repository to facilitate the development and testing process described in recommendation no. 3. ; (5) the optimal study design for a clinical trial to evaluate whether advanced imaging adds value in selecting acute ischemic stroke patients for revascularization therapy. ; (6) the structure of a stroke neuroimaging network to implement and coordinate the recommendations listed above. All of these recommendations pertain to research, not to clinical care.]]> Thu 28 May 2020 06:30:04 AEST ]]> Optimal Delay Time of CT Perfusion for Predicting Cerebral Parenchymal Hematoma After Intra-Arterial tPA Treatment https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:43334 2, >4, >6, >8, and >10 s) with PH was examined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and logistic regression. Results: Of 94 patients, 23 developed PH on follow-up imaging. Receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed that the greatest area under the curve for predicting PH occurred at DT > 4 s (area under the curve, 0.66). At this threshold of > 4 s, DT lesion volume ≥ 30.85 mL optimally predicted PH with 70% sensitivity and 59% specificity. DT > 4 s volume was independently predictive of PH in a multivariate logistic regression model (P < 0.05). Conclusions: DT > 4 s was the parameter most strongly associated with PH. The volume of moderate, not severe, hypo-perfusion on DT is more strongly associated and may allow better prediction of PH after intra-arterial tPA thrombolysis.]]> Thu 15 Sep 2022 15:04:25 AEST ]]> International survey of acute stroke imaging used to make revascularization treatment decisions https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:22635 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:11:27 AEDT ]]> Automated CT perfusion imaging for acute ischemic stroke: pearls and pitfalls for real-world use https://novaprd-lb.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:48724 Fri 10 Nov 2023 07:23:45 AEDT ]]>
