Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Radiology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Hemorrhagic transformation (HT) is a significant complication in ischemic stroke patients treated with alteplase.
  • Predicting HT is crucial for optimizing treatment decisions and patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of existing HT predictors.
  • To compare these predictors with novel CT perfusion (CTP) imaging permeability measures.
  • To identify optimal CTP thresholds for predicting HT in patients receiving alteplase.

Main Methods:

  • A pixel-based analysis of pretreatment CTP was performed to determine HT prediction thresholds.
  • Existing HT predictors were compared against CTP measures using regression and ROC analyses.
  • Area Under the Curve (AUC) was calculated to assess predictive performance.

Main Results:

  • The extraction fraction (E) permeability map at a 30% threshold showed high AUC for predicting HT (derivation 0.85, validation 0.84).
  • AUC improved significantly when permeability was assessed within the acute perfusion lesion (derivation 0.91, validation 0.89).
  • CTP permeability measures outperformed previously proposed HT predictors.

Conclusions:

  • CTP imaging, particularly the E map within the acute perfusion lesion, provides a highly accurate method for predicting HT.
  • This validated measure holds potential for clinical use in guiding alteplase treatment decisions for ischemic stroke.
  • The findings support the integration of advanced perfusion imaging in stroke management protocols.
