Résumé

Cerebral edema after large hemispheric infarction is associated with poor functional outcome and mortality. Net water uptake (NWU) quantifies the degree of hypoattenuation on unenhanced-computed tomography (CT) and is increasingly used to measure cerebral edema in stroke research. Hemorrhagic transformation and parenchymal contrast staining after thrombectomy may confound NWU measurements. We investigated the correlation of NWU measured postthrombectomy with volumetric markers of cerebral edema and association with functional outcomes.
