Abstract

BACKGROUND: Early prediction of hematoma expansion (HE) is important for the development of therapeutic strategies for spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH). Radiomics can help to predict early hematoma expansion in intracerebral hemorrhage. However, complex image processing procedures, especially hematoma segmentation, are time-consuming and dependent on assessor experience. We provide a fully automated hematoma segmentation method, and construct a hybrid predictive model for risk stratification of hematoma expansion.
