Identifying Thrombus on Non-Contrast CT in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke

Identifying Thrombus on Non-Contrast CT in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke

The hyperdense sign is a marker of thrombus in non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) datasets. The aim of this work was to determine optimal Hounsfield unit (HU) thresholds for thrombus segmentation in thin-slice non-contrast CT (NCCT) and use these thresholds to generate 3D thrombus models.
