Cut points were determined by the Y‑Index and sensitivity threshold of ≥0.70

ROC indicates, receiver operating characteristics, LVO large vessel occlusion, AUC area under the curve, CI confidence interval, Y‑Index Youden Index, Spec specificity, CP cut point, CTA CT angiography, AR asymmetry ratio, ICA internal carotid artery, M1 M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery, M2 M2 segment of the middle cerebral artery, ASPECTS Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score

P values <0.05 indicate statistical significance
