Clot Composition Profiling in Large Vessel Occlusion Stroke Via Radiomics
Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective Clot composition may offer insights into the mechanism of ischemic stroke. Radiomics, a noninvasive imaging technique, enables tissue characterization through radiomic features (RFs). We aimed to evaluate clot composition using radiomics on non‐contrast computed tomography (NCCT).
