Synopsis

Cavernous malformation (CM) is one of the common cerebral vascular diseases. Hemorrhage is a common and dangerous symptom of CMs, and re-hemorrhage may still occur in 30% of patients after the treatment of Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS). Till now, the prediction of occurrences of future re-hemorrhage in CMs are still less explored. In this study, we used statistical analyses to observe longitudinal changes in MRI radiomic features before re-hemorrhage after GKRS. We aimed to identify the reliable image biomarkers using the quantitative and non-invasive MRI technique as early predictors to guide the clinical management for CM patients.
