Table 2.

Insights into final T2 outcome Columns 1 and 3 show the mean value of dice index over time for the 8 patients between the estimated evolving DWI/MTT lesion boundaries from acute to subacute stages and the final T2 lesion boundary. Columns 2 and 4 show the time corresponding to the maximum value that the dice index reached, where the final T2 lesion is spatially closest to the estimated DWI/MTT evolution. Columns 5 and 7 display the mean value of the symmetric distance over time computed in mm (the spatial discrepancy) between the evolving DWI/MTT boundaries and the final T2 boundary. Columns 6 and 8 depict the time of the “appearance” (in hours) of the T2 within the DWI and MTT evolution scenarios corresponding to the minimum of the symmetric distance that varied with time—for each patient.
