Quantification of hounsfield unit difference in heterogeneous hematoma predicts poor functional outcomes in acute intracerebral hemorrhage.
Scientific reports 20250926 1
Heterogeneous hematoma exhibiting a blend sign undergo dynamic changes associated with neurological injury. This study quantified hyperdense and hypodense regions of blend sign on serial non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) using ITK-SNAP, calculated the mean hounsfield unit (HU) difference (dHU), and evaluated its prognostic value in 261 patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). All patients underwent baseline CT within 6 h of symptom onset and follow-up CT within 24 h. Logistic regressi ...[more]
