Abstract
Intracerebral hematoma (ICH) is a blood clot that forms when a blood vessel in the brain ruptures for some reason and the spilled blood coagulates. ICH has a high morbidity and mortality rate, accounting for approximately 10% of all strokes. Manual segmentation of ICH in head CT images is very complicated, time consuming, and troublesome. When ICH perforates the ventricular wall and blood flows into the ventricle, there is little difference in CT value between ICH and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), and the boundary between them is unclear. Convolutional neural network (CNN) has proven to be a reliable method in the field of image recognition. In addition, quantification of ICH may aid in decision making in ICH treatment. In this study, we introduce CNN in a stepwise manner to differentiate ICH and IVH in the process and extract ICH regions. The results in 18 stroke patients show that our method is promising in the extraction of ICH regions with an accuracy of 75.2%.
