Background: In acute ischemic stroke (AIS), fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) is used for treatment decisions when onset time is unknown. Synthetic FLAIR could be generated with deep learning from information embedded in diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and could replace acquired FLAIR sequence (real FLAIR) and shorten MRI duration.Purpose: To compare performance of synthetic and real FLAIR for DWI-FLAIR mismatch estimation and identification of patients presenting within 4.5 hours from symptom onset.Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, all pretreatment and early follow-up (=.99).Conclusion: Synthetic fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) had diagnostic performances similar to real FLAIR in depicting diffusion-weighted imaging-FLAIR mismatch and in helping to identify early acute ischemic stroke, and it may accelerate MRI protocols.
