Hemorrhage Stroke Decision Making Model Based Deep Learning (BrainHemoAI System)

Hemorrhagic stroke is a serious cerebrovascular disease, accounting for about 20% of all strokes. It refers to cerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by intracranial vascular diseases such as intracranial aneurysms, cerebral and spinal vascular malformations and moyamoya disease under the effect of blood flow. It has the characteristics of high incidence rate, high disability rate and high mortality rate, and has caused huge economic burden to patients, families and society.

Hemorrhagic stroke is one of the high-risk diseases in Jiangxi Province, and has become a major public health challenge and a key social issue that urgently needs to be addressed. On the one hand, the diagnosis and treatment of hemorrhagic stroke have a certain degree of complexity, involving multiple disciplines, especially neurology and endocrinology, which have established multiple diagnostic, evaluation, treatment, and rehabilitation systems. Different systems have different focuses, but limited by the level of understanding of the disease, there have been only basic treatment principles for decades, and there has been no breakthrough in specific treatment plans. On the other hand, with the development of the economy and the improvement of living standards, clinical physicians and patients not only focus on the survival rate after hemorrhagic stroke, but also pay more attention to neurological function recovery and long-term quality of life. Due to the limitations of detection technology in the past, it was difficult to accurately describe diseases and truly develop individualized diagnosis and treatment plans, resulting in significant differences in patient prognosis. How to leverage advances in diagnosis and treatment technology to ultimately achieve precision, individualization, and homogenization in the diagnosis and treatment of hemorrhagic stroke is a key focus for the future.

Although hemorrhagic stroke also has the characteristics of high mortality and disability rates, and constitutes a major public health problem worldwide, there is a relative lack of in-depth research teams for hemorrhagic stroke in China. The current preoperative imaging evaluation of spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage is still limited to the traditional Tada formula, and there are subjective differences in diagnosis among different doctors, making it difficult to achieve homogenization in clinical decision-making. Hemorrhagic stroke is a common and frequently occurring disease in Jiangxi Province. Therefore, establishing a new diagnosis and treatment system focused on hemorrhagic stroke can not only fill the research gap in this field in China, improve the accuracy and homogeneity of hemorrhagic stroke diagnosis and treatment, but also promote related research progress to reduce the mortality and disability rates of this disease and improve the clinical prognosis of patients.
