The prognostic utility of clinically acquired CT brain imaging for predicting cognitive and functional outcomes after stroke

我的研究调查了我们是否可以使用临床获得的CT脑成像来预测中风后的认知和功能结果。更具体地说，我正在使用纵向数据集来研究脑卒中后的预后是否可以通过ct衍生的脑萎缩、白质病变和预先存在的脑卒中病变来预测。我研究的一个更广泛的目标是协助开发和验证自动图像分析软件，以测量CT脑成像上的这些成像标记。我的研究由Nele Demeyere博士监督，Sarah Pendlebury博士和Sana Suri博士共同监督。我的博士学位是由ESRC的1+3大联盟DTP学生资助的。

My research investigates whether we can use clinically acquired CT brain imaging to predict cognitive and functional outcomes after stroke. More specifically, I am using longitudinal datasets to investigate whether post-stroke outcomes are predicted by CT-derived measures of cerebral atrophy, white matter lesions, and pre-existing stroke lesions. A broader aim of my research is to assist in the development and validation of automated image analysis software to measure these imaging markers on CT brain imaging. My research is supervised by Dr Nele Demeyere, with co-supervision from Dr Sarah Pendlebury and Dr Sana Suri. My DPhil is funded by the ESRC's 1+3 Grand Union DTP studentship.
