Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of a deep learning AI for detecting cervical spine fractures on CT scans, comparing it to the performance of attending radiologists and identifying fractures requiring stabilizing therapy.
- A total of 2,368 scans were analyzed, revealing that AI had a sensitivity of 71.5% and detected many fractures missed by radiologists, while radiologists had a higher sensitivity of 88.2% but missed fewer fractures in need of stabilizing therapy.
- The findings suggest that while the AI missed more fractures overall, it was able to identify some that radiologists missed, including several critical injuries needing intervention.
Endovascular treatment versus no endovascular treatment after 6-24 h in patients with ischaemic stroke and collateral flow on CT angiography (MR CLEAN-LATE) in the Netherlands: a multicentre, open-label, blinded-endpoint, randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial.

April 2023
Background: Endovascular treatment for anterior circulation ischaemic stroke is effective and safe within a 6 h window. MR CLEAN-LATE aimed to assess efficacy and safety of endovascular treatment for patients treated in the late window (6-24 h from symptom onset or last seen well) selected on the basis of the presence of collateral flow on CT angiography (CTA).
Methods: MR CLEAN-LATE was a multicentre, open-label, blinded-endpoint, randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial done in 18 stroke intervention centres in the Netherlands.
Bone visualization of the cervical spine with deep learning-based synthetic CT compared to conventional CT: A single-center noninferiority study on image quality.
Eur J Radiol
September 2022
Purpose: To investigate whether the image quality of a specific deep learning-based synthetic CT (sCT) of the cervical spine is noninferior to conventional CT.
Method: Paired MRI and CT data were collected from 25 consecutive participants (≥ 50 years) with cervical radiculopathy. The MRI exam included a T1-weighted multiple gradient echo sequence for sCT reconstruction.
Safety and efficacy of aspirin, unfractionated heparin, both, or neither during endovascular stroke treatment (MR CLEAN-MED): an open-label, multicentre, randomised controlled trial.
Lancet
March 2022
Background: Aspirin and unfractionated heparin are often used during endovascular stroke treatment to improve reperfusion and outcomes. However, the effects and risks of anti-thrombotics for this indication are unknown. We therefore aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of intravenous aspirin, unfractionated heparin, both, or neither started during endovascular treatment in patients with ischaemic stroke.

Methods: We included patients with proximal occlusions of the anterior circulation from the second and first cohorts of the MR CLEAN (Multicenter Randomized Clinical trial of Endovascular Treatment for Acute Ischemic Stroke in the Netherlands) Registry (March 2014 to June 2016; June 2016 to November 2017, respectively).
