Comparison results of different stroke scores and CT scans of the brain
Our comparative findings of stroke scores and CT scans of patients were indifferent across ages , stroke subtypes , and validation methods . Out of 64 patients who were identified by Siriraj stroke score value as haemorrhagic stroke types , 46 patients were diagnosed with a haemorrhagic stroke , 17 patients were ischemic stroke , and 1 was diagnosed as normal by CT scan of the brain . Out of 49 ischemic patients who were identified by Guy ' s stroke score , 35 patients were diagnosed as ischemic , 12 patients were haemorrhagic , and 2 were diagnosed as normal by CT scan of the brain . From the total of 78 equivocal results by Greek stroke score 38 and 40 patients were diagnosed with haemorrhagic and ischemic stroke types by CT scan of the brain respectively . Out of 108 patients who were identified by Besson stroke score value as haemorrhagic stroke types , 62 patients were diagnosed with haemorrhagic stroke and 44 patients were ischemic stroke , while 2 were identified as normal by CT scan of the brain . Of the total of 32 ischemic patients who were identified by Besson stroke score , 24 patients were diagnosed as ischemic , and 8 patients were haemorrhagic by CT scan of the brain ( Table 1 ).
