SWI plays a critical role in stroke in demonstration of hemorrhagic transformation of stroke and demonstration of thrombus in the intracranial arteries. Recently it has been used to quantify the penumbra in acute stroke. It highlights venous vasculature in acute stroke due to hypoxia in the acute ischemic tissue without the need for any contrast injection and adding additional sequence that results in time penalty. The objective of this study was to develop an automatic framework for penumbra detection using only SWI images. Evaluation of segmentation results shows a dice similarity coefficient of 0.72 and a jaccard index of 0.60.
