CONCURRENT DISPLAY OF HEMODYNAMIC PARAMETERS AND DAMAGED BRAIN TISSUE
20230036757 · 2023-02-02 ·

Images can be generated with overlays indicating an amount of brain tissue damage based on the disruption of blood supply. Imaging data can be analyzed to determine perfusion parameters with respect to regions of the brain of an individual. The thresholds for the perfusion parameters with respect to the presence of damaged brain tissue can be based on a period of time elapsed since the onset of a biological condition disrupting blood flow to one or more regions of the brain of the individual. The imaging data can also be analyzed to determine measures of hypodensity with respect to regions of the brain of the individual. A likelihood of the measures of hypodensity corresponding to damaged brain tissue can also be determined based on the period of time elapsed since the onset of the biological condition.
