Cortical vein opacification measurement using hounsfield unit values is a predictor for outcome in anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke

In acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients, the cortical vein opacification on computed tomographic angiography (CTA) imaging is usually asymmetric. To explore the correlation between CT perfusion parameters and cortical vein opacification evaluated by Hounsfield unit (HU) values, which is more accurately, and compare the predictive ability between them for outcome in AIS.
