Accurate prediction of stroke risk is crucial for effective clinical management. This study aimed to develop a multidimensional prediction model for acute stroke using carotid plaque characteristics, lumen parameters, perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) quantitative metrics derived from dual-energy computed tomography angiography (DE-CTA), and serum lipid biomarkers.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>This retrospective dual-center study enrolled 212 patients who underwent DE-CTA and MRI between January 2023 and October 2024, comprising a training cohort (137 patients) and an external validation cohort (75 patients). Quantitative parameters including carotid plaque features (composition and intraplaque parameters), lumen metrics, PVAT quantitative indices, and serum lipid levels were collected. Patients with ipsilateral acute anterior circulation infarcts identified on MRI were classified as symptomatic (STA), and those without infarcts as asymptomatic (ATA).
