AI brain scan tool could speed up stroke diagnosis
NCT ID NCT07546019
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a computer program called Heuron CTA that looks at brain CT scans to find large blockages in blood vessels. Researchers compared the software's results to diagnoses made by medical experts using scans from 270 adults. If accurate, this tool could help doctors diagnose dangerous blockages faster and more reliably.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Adults aged 19 years or older who visited the clinical trial institution for brain CTA images between January 2020 and May 2021, and from November 2021 until IRB approval 2. Individuals classified into the positive or negative group based on the following criteria: * Positive group: Diagnosed with large vessel occlusion due to occlusion of the vessels between ICA and MCA-M1 after taking brain CTA images -- Negative group: Diagnosed as either not having large vessel occlusion or as normal after brain CTA images Exclusion Criteria: 1. Cases with poor-quality or incomplete brain CTA images7) 2. Cases where intracranial prosthetic implants (e.g., catheters, coils) were present 3. Cases that were previously used for AI model training and internal validation 4. Any other cases deemed unsuitable for participation in the clinical trial based on the investigator's judgment \* Specific reasons were recorded in the case report form.
