Abstract
OBJECTIVE Machine learning and deep learning techniques offer a promising multidisciplinary solution for subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) detection. The novel transfer learning approach mitigates the time constraints associated with the traditional techniques and demonstrates a superior performance. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and CNN-based transfer learning models in differentiating between aneurysmal SAH and nonaneurysmal SAH. METHODS Data from Istanbul Ümraniye Training and Research Hospital, which included 15,600 digital imaging and communications in medicine images from 123 patients with aneurysmal SAH and 7793 images from 80 patients with nonaneurysmal SAH, were used. The study employed 4 models: Inception-V3, EfficientNetB4, single-layer CNN, and three-layer CNN. Transfer learning models were customized by modifying the last 3 layers and using the Adam optimizer. The models were trained on Google Collaboratory and evaluated based on metrics such as F-score, precision, recall, and accuracy. RESULTS EfficientNetB4 demonstrated the highest accuracy (99.92%), with a better F-score (99.82%), recall (99.92%), and precision (99.90%) than the other methods. The single- and three-layer CNNs and the transfer learning models produced comparable results. No overfitting was observed, and robust models were developed. CONCLUSIONS CNN-based transfer learning models can accurately diagnose the etiology of SAH from computed tomography images and is a valuable tool for clinicians. This approach could reduce the need for invasive procedures such as digital subtraction angiography, leading to more efficient medical resource utilization and improved patient outcomes.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES Early identification for hematoma expansion can help improve patient outcomes. Presently, there are many methods to predict hematoma expansion. This study compared a variety of models to find a model suitable for clinical promotion. MATERIALS AND METHODS Non-contrast head CT images and clinical data were collected from 203 patients diagnosed with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage. Radiomics features were extracted from all CT images, and the dataset was randomly divided into training and validation sets (7:3 ratio) after applying the synthetic minority oversampling method. The radiomics score (Radscore) was calculated using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, combined with selected clinical predictors, to develop a nomogram and four machine learning (ML) models: logistic regression, random forest, support vector machine, and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost). Discrimination, calibration and clinical usefulness of the nomogram and ML models were assessed. RESULTS The nomogram and ML models were integrated with Radscore and clinical predictors. The nomogram demonstrated favorable discriminatory ability in the training set with an AUC of 0.80, which was confirmed in the validation set (AUC=0.76). Among the ML models, the XGBoost model achieved the highest AUC (training set=0.89 and validation set=0.85), surpassing that of the nomogram. The XGBoost model exhibited good clinical usefulness. CONCLUSION Both the nomogram and ML models constructed by non-contrast head CT image-based Radscore integrated with clinical predictors can predict early hematoma expansion of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage, and the XGBoost model had the highest prediction performance and best clinical usefulness.

Abstract
Hematoma expansion (HE) is a high risky symptom with high rate of occurrence for patients who have undergone spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) after a major accident or illness. Correct prediction of the occurrence of HE in advance is critical to help the doctors to determine the next step medical treatment. Most existing studies focus only on the occurrence of HE within 6 h after the occurrence of ICH, while in reality a considerable number of patients have HE after the first 6 h but within 24 h. In this study, based on the medical doctors recommendation, we focus on prediction of the occurrence of HE within 24 h, as well as the occurrence of HE every 6 h within 24 h. Based on the demographics and computer tomography (CT) image extraction information, we used the XGBoost method to predict the occurrence of HE within 24 h. In this study, to solve the issue of highly imbalanced data set, which is a frequent case in medical data analysis, we used the SMOTE algorithm for data augmentation. To evaluate our method, we used a data set consisting of 582 patients records, and compared the results of proposed method as well as few machine learning methods. Our experiments show that XGBoost achieved the best prediction performance on the balanced dataset processed by the SMOTE algorithm with an accuracy of 0.82 and F1-score of 0.82. Moreover, our proposed method predicts the occurrence of HE within 6, 12, 18 and 24 h at the accuracy of 0.89, 0.82, 0.87 and 0.94, indicating that the HE occurrence within 24 h can be predicted accurately by the proposed method.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hematoma expansion (HE) in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a key predictor of poor prognosis and potentially amenable to treatment. This study aimed to build a classification model to predict HE in patients with ICH using deep learning algorithms without using advanced radiological features. METHODS Data from the ATACH-2 trial (Antihypertensive Treatment of Acute Cerebral Hemorrhage) was utilized. Variables included in the models were chosen as per literature consensus on salient variables associated with HE. HE was defined as increase in either >33% or 6 mL in hematoma volume in the first 24 h. Multiple machine learning algorithms were employed using iterative feature selection and outcome balancing methods. 70% of patients were used for training and 30% for internal validation. We compared the ML models to a logistic regression model and calculated AUC, accuracy, sensitivity and specificity for the internal validation models respective models. RESULTS Among 1000 patients included in the ATACH-2 trial, 924 had the complete parameters which were included in the analytical cohort. The median [interquartile range (IQR)] initial hematoma volume was 9.93.mm3 [5.03-18.17] and 25.2% had HE. The best performing model across all feature selection groups and sampling cohorts was using an artificial neural network (ANN) for HE in the testing cohort with AUC 0.702 [95% CI, 0.631-0.774] with 8 hidden layer nodes The traditional logistic regression yielded AUC 0.658 [95% CI, 0.641-0.675]. All other models performed with less accuracy and lower AUC. Initial hematoma volume, time to initial CT head, and initial SBP emerged as most relevant variables across all best performing models. CONCLUSION We developed multiple ML algorithms to predict HE with the ANN classifying the best without advanced radiographic features, although the AUC was only modestly better than other models. A larger, more heterogenous dataset is needed to further build and better generalize the models.

Abstract
PURPOSE Early identification of hematoma enlargement and persistent hematoma expansion (HE) in patients with cerebral hemorrhage is increasingly crucial for determining clinical treatments. However, due to the lack of clinically effective tools, radiomics has been gradually introduced into the early identification of hematoma enlargement. Though, radiomics has limited predictive accuracy due to variations in procedures. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the value of radiomics in the early detection of HE in patients with cerebral hemorrhage. METHODS Eligible studies were systematically searched in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane and Web of Science from inception to April 8, 2024. English articles are considered eligible. The radiomics quality scoring (RQS) tool was used to evaluate included studies. RESULTS A total of 34 studies were identified with sample sizes ranging from 108 to 3016. Eleven types of models were involved, and the types of modeling contained mainly clinical, radiomic, and radiomic plus clinical features. The radiomics models seem to have better performance (0.77 and 0.73 C-index in the training cohort and validation cohort, respectively) than the clinical models (0.69 C-index in the training cohort and 0.70 C-index in the validation cohort) in discriminating HE. However, the C-index was the highest for the combined model in both the training (0.82) and validation (0.79) cohorts. CONCLUSIONS Machine learning based on radiomic plus clinical features has the best predictive performance for HE, followed by machine learning based on radiomic features, and can be used as a potential tool to assist clinicians in early judgment.

Abstract
Hematoma expansion (HE) is an important risk factor for death or poor prognosis in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (HICH). Accurately predicting the risk of HE in patients with HICH is of great clinical significance for timely intervention and improving patient prognosis. Many imaging signs reported in literatures showed the important clinical value for predicting HE. In recent years, the development of radiomics and artificial intelligence has provided new methods for HE prediction with high accuracy. Therefore, this article reviews the latest research progress in CT imaging, radiomics, and artificial intelligence of HE, in order to help identify high-risk patients for HE in clinical practice.

Abstract
The utilization of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) is paving the way for significant strides in patient diagnosis, treatment, and prognostication in neurocritical care. These technologies offer the potential to unravel complex patterns within vast datasets ranging from vast clinical data and EEG (electroencephalogram) readings to advanced cerebral imaging facilitating a more nuanced understanding of patient conditions. Despite their promise, the implementation of AI and ML faces substantial hurdles. Historical biases within training data, the challenge of interpreting multifaceted data streams, and the "black box" nature of ML algorithms present barriers to widespread clinical adoption. Moreover, ethical considerations around data privacy and the need for transparent, explainable models remain paramount to ensure trust and efficacy in clinical decision-making.This article reflects on the emergence of AI and ML as integral tools in neurocritical care, discussing their roles from the perspective of both their scientific promise and the associated challenges. We underscore the importance of extensive validation in diverse clinical settings to ensure the generalizability of ML models, particularly considering their potential to inform critical medical decisions such as withdrawal of life-sustaining therapies. Advancement in computational capabilities is essential for implementing ML in clinical settings, allowing for real-time analysis and decision support at the point of care. As AI and ML are poised to become commonplace in clinical practice, it is incumbent upon health care professionals to understand and oversee these technologies, ensuring they adhere to the highest safety standards and contribute to the realization of personalized medicine. This engagement will be pivotal in integrating AI and ML into patient care, optimizing outcomes in neurocritical care through informed and data-driven decision-making.

Abstract
PURPOSE To predict hematoma growth in intracerebral hemorrhage patients by combining clinical findings with non-contrast CT imaging features analyzed through deep learning. METHODS Three models were developed to predict hematoma expansion (HE) in 572 patients. We utilized multi-task learning for both hematoma segmentation and prediction of expansion: the Image-to-HE model processed hematoma slices, extracting features and computing a normalized DL score for HE prediction. The Clinical-to-HE model utilized multivariate logistic regression on clinical variables. The Integrated-to-HE model combined image-derived and clinical data. Significant clinical variables were selected using forward selection in logistic regression. The two models incorporating clinical variables were statistically validated. RESULTS For hematoma detection, the diagnostic performance of the developed multi-task model was excellent (AUC, 0.99). For expansion prediction, three models were evaluated for predicting HE. The Image-to-HE model achieved an accuracy of 67.3%, sensitivity of 81.0%, specificity of 64.0%, and an AUC of 0.76. The Clinical-to-HE model registered an accuracy of 74.8%, sensitivity of 81.0%, specificity of 73.3%, and an AUC of 0.81. The Integrated-to-HE model, merging both image and clinical data, excelled with an accuracy of 81.3%, sensitivity of 76.2%, specificity of 82.6%, and an AUC of 0.83. The Integrated-to-HE model, aligning closest to the diagonal line and indicating the highest level of calibration, showcases superior performance in predicting HE outcomes among the three models. CONCLUSION The integration of clinical findings with non-contrast CT imaging features analyzed through deep learning showed the potential for improving the prediction of HE in acute spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to investigate the connection between the leakage sign (LS) and hematoma expansion (HE) in cases of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage. The investigation employs dual-energy computed tomography angiography (DECTA). METHODS A prospective cohort study was conducted, in which clinical and DECTA imaging data were collected from intracerebral hemorrhage patients within 6 hours of onset between January 2021 and June 2023. Exposure factors included DE-LS and traditional imaging biomarkers. The occurrence of HE on computed tomography rescanned within 24 hours was the observed outcome. Exposed and confounding factors were considered in both univariate and multivariate regression analyses based on the results. Logistic and adjusted Poisson regressions were employed, and odds ratios (ORs) and relative risks (RRs) were calculated with 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS The study enrolled a total of 90 patients, of whom 32 cases manifested HE, while 58 cases did not exhibit HE. Univariate analysis revealed statistically significant differences in parameters such as admission diastolic blood pressure, C-reactive protein, Glasgow Coma Scale, baseline hematoma volume, and imaging biomarkers like DE-spot sign and DE-LS. The OR value of DE-LS was determined as 48.21, with an RR value of 7.51. Multivariate adjusted Poisson regression analysis demonstrated that DE-LS was a robust independent predictor (RR = 4.11, 95% confidence interval: 1.49-11.35; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS DECTA-based DE-LS stands out as an independent predictor of HE. The utilization of RR values over OR values is endorsed when assessing the risk of HE prediction.

Uncertainty-aware deep-learning model for prediction of supratentorial hematoma expansion from admission non-contrast head computed tomography scan. NPJ Digit Med 2024; 7:26. [PMID: 38321131 PMCID: PMC10847454 DOI: 10.1038/s41746-024-01007-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 02/08/2024] Open
Abstract
Hematoma expansion (HE) is a modifiable risk factor and a potential treatment target in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We aimed to train and validate deep-learning models for high-confidence prediction of supratentorial ICH expansion, based on admission non-contrast head Computed Tomography (CT). Applying Monte Carlo dropout and entropy of deep-learning model predictions, we estimated the model uncertainty and identified patients at high risk of HE with high confidence. Using the receiver operating characteristics area under the curve (AUC), we compared the deep-learning model prediction performance with multivariable models based on visual markers of HE determined by expert reviewers. We randomly split a multicentric dataset of patients (4-to-1) into training/cross-validation (n = 634) versus test (n = 159) cohorts. We trained and tested separate models for prediction of ≥6 mL and ≥3 mL ICH expansion. The deep-learning models achieved an AUC = 0.81 for high-confidence prediction of HE≥6 mL and AUC = 0.80 for prediction of HE≥3 mL, which were higher than visual maker models AUC = 0.69 for HE≥6 mL (p = 0.036) and AUC = 0.68 for HE≥3 mL (p = 0.043). Our results show that fully automated deep-learning models can identify patients at risk of supratentorial ICH expansion based on admission non-contrast head CT, with high confidence, and more accurately than benchmark visual markers.

PROGRESS IN BIOPHYSICS AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 2023; 183:1-16. [PMID: 37499766 DOI: 10.1016/j.pbiomolbio.2023.07.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2023] [Revised: 07/05/2023] [Accepted: 07/15/2023] [Indexed: 07/29/2023]
Abstract
The risk of discovering an intracranial aneurysm during the initial screening and follow-up screening are reported as around 11%, and 7% respectively (Zuurbie et al., 2023) to these mass effects, unruptured aneurysms frequently generate symptoms, however, the real hazard occurs when an aneurysm ruptures and results in a cerebral hemorrhage known as a subarachnoid hemorrhage. The objective is to study the multiple kinds of hemorrhage and aneurysm detection problems and develop machine and deep learning models to recognise them. Due to its early stage, subarachnoid hemorrhage, the most typical symptom after aneurysm rupture, is an important medical condition. It frequently results in severe neurological emergencies or even death. Although most aneurysms are asymptomatic and won't burst, because of their unpredictable growth, even small aneurysms are susceptible. A timely diagnosis is essential to prevent early mortality because a large percentage of hemorrhage cases present can be fatal. Physiological/imaging markers and the degree of the subarachnoid hemorrhage can be used as indicators for potential early treatments in hemorrhage. The hemodynamic pathomechanisms and microcellular environment should remain a priority for academics and medical professionals. There is still disagreement about how and when to care for aneurysms that have not ruptured despite studies reporting on the risk of rupture and outcomes. We are optimistic that with the progress in our understanding of the pathophysiology of hemorrhages and aneurysms and the advancement of artificial intelligence has made it feasible to conduct analyses with a high degree of precision, effectiveness and reliability.

Abstract
Introduction Cerebrovascular diseases are known to cause significant morbidity and mortality to the general population. In patients with cerebrovascular disease, prompt clinical evaluation and radiographic interpretation are both essential in optimizing clinical management and in triaging patients for critical and potentially life-saving neurosurgical interventions. With recent advancements in the domains of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), many AI and ML algorithms have been developed to further optimize the diagnosis and subsequent management of cerebrovascular disease. Despite such advances, further studies are needed to substantively evaluate both the diagnostic accuracy and feasibility of these techniques for their application in clinical practice. This review aims to analyze the current use of AI and MI algorithms in the diagnosis of, and clinical decision making for cerebrovascular disease, and to discuss both the feasibility and future applications of utilizing such algorithms. Methods We review the use of AI and ML algorithms to assist clinicians in the diagnosis and management of ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, intracranial aneurysms, and arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). After identifying the most widely used algorithms, we provide a detailed analysis of the accuracy and effectiveness of these algorithms in practice. Results The incorporation of AI and ML algorithms for cerebrovascular patients has demonstrated improvements in time to detection of intracranial pathologies such as intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and infarcts. For ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes, commercial AI software platforms such as RapidAI and Viz.AI have bene implemented into routine clinical practice at many stroke centers to expedite the detection of infarcts and ICH, respectively. Such algorithms and neural networks have also been analyzed for use in prognostication for such cerebrovascular pathologies. These include predicting outcomes for ischemic stroke patients, hematoma expansion, risk of aneurysm rupture, bleeding of AVMs, and in predicting outcomes following interventions such as risk of occlusion for various endovascular devices. Preliminary analyses have yielded promising sensitivities when AI and ML are used in concert with imaging modalities and a multidisciplinary team of health care providers. Conclusion The implementation of AI and ML algorithms to supplement clinical practice has conferred a high degree of accuracy, efficiency, and expedited detection in the clinical and radiographic evaluation and management of ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes, AVMs, and aneurysms. Such algorithms have been explored for further purposes of prognostication for these conditions, with promising preliminary results. Further studies should evaluate the longitudinal implementation of such techniques into hospital networks and residency programs to supplement clinical practice, and the extent to which these techniques improve patient care and clinical outcomes in the long-term.
