rHU was defined as the ratio of regional x-ray attenuation measurements of the ischemic to the non-ischemic hemisphere. Ischemic core was defined as ischemic change on the parametric cerebral blood flow map as well as cerebral blood volume map. Sensitivity and specificity for the indicated cut-off value are presented as percentage and numbers as raw data in parentheses. AUC indicates area under the curve values; C, caudate nucleus; CI, confidence interval; IC, internal capsule; INS, insula; L, lentiform nucleus; M1-M6, cortical regions of the ASPECTS score; rHU, relative Hounsfield Units; and ROC, receiver operating characteristics. P Values <0.05 indicate statistical significance.
