Effect of MRI Images Based on Semi-Automatic Volume Segmentation in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke
Objective: To study the MRI and CT characteristics of different periods of acute ischemic stroke and evaluate its diagnostic value by using semi-automatic mention segmentation method. Methods: CT, conventional MRI and DWI were performed in 64 patients with acute ischemic
stroke. The average ADC value and average relative ADC (rADC) value of infarct lesions were measured and statistically analyzed. Results: There were no significant differences in CT, conventional MRI, and DWI signal characteristics between 1 and 7 days after the onset of acute ischemic
stroke. The average ADC value and the average rADC value decreased, but the average rADC in the infarct area increased with time. The rADC value was statistically significant with the onset of 1d, 2d, 3d, and 4d (P < 0.05), but not statistically significant
with the onset of 5d and 6d (P > 0.05). Conclusion: In the image processing method of semi-automatic segmentation method, the characteristics of CT, conventional MRI, and DWI signals combined with the evolution of rADC values over time can help to judge the pathophysiological
changes of acute ischemic stroke, which is ischemic. Stroke staging and treatment guidance are provided.
