dc.description.abstractIn 2022, cerebral strokes ranked fourth as the leading cause of death in the Palestinian Ministry of Health, accounting for 11% of all deaths. The Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) is a quick, semi-quantitative way to assess ischemic lesions and predict prognosis in patients with ischemic stroke. It is a straightforward, reliable method for evaluating early ischemic changes in the blood supply region of the middle and posterior cerebral arteries. The primary basis for this strategy is the visual observation of doctors. However, the low inter-reader agreement could lead to mistakes in the final diagnosis because of the doctor's varying degrees of experience. To aid medical professionals in their diagnosis and assessment, this work proposes the use of non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) as the basis for the ASPECTS technique of acute ischemic stroke.
