Net Water Uptake Calculated in Standardized and Blindly Outlined Regions of the Middle Cerebral Artery Territory Predicts the Development of Malignant Edema in Patients With Acute Large Hemispheric Infarction

Net Water Uptake Calculated in Standardized and Blindly Outlined Regions of the Middle Cerebral Artery Territory Predicts the Development of Malignant Edema in Patients With Acute Large Hemispheric Infarction

Background and purpose: Previous studies have demonstrated that Net Water Uptake (NWU) is associated with the development of malignant edema (ME). The current study aimed to investigate whether NWU calculated in standardized and blindly outlined regions of the middle cerebral artery can predict the...
