Computer-aided detecting of early strokes and its evaluation on the base of CT images

Abstract

This paper presents an easy way of finding strokes on computer tomography images. By calculating a cohesive rate (CR) of suspicious pixel on a series of CT images there is a possibility of calculating a general probability of a stroke. In a difficult case there is always an opportunity to generate a graph of all stroke probabilities interposed on the original image. It is a very helpful tool specialists and neurologists working in emergency situations. Supported by grant N518 022 3/1338 (Ministry of Science).
