Abstract: BACKGROUND Cerebral edema after large hemispheric infarction is associated with poor functional outcome and mortality. Net water uptake (NWU) quantifies the degree of hypoattenuation on unenhanced-computed tomography (CT) and is increasingly used to measure cerebral… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2022.903263

Abstract: Objective We hypothesized that quantitative net water uptake (NWU), a novel neuroimaging marker of early brain edema, can predict symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) after acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Methods We enrolled patients with AIS who… read more here.
