Computed Tomography Perfusion Deficits during the Baseline Period in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Are Predictive of Delayed Cerebral Ischemia

Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is a frequent and fearful complication following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). The aim of this study is to assess the diagnostic accuracy of computed tomography perfusion (CTP) during an admission baseline period for the prediction of DCI.
