摘要

Background

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remains associated with high mortality and treatment variability. Current workflows rely on fragmented imaging interpretation and operator-dependent surgical planning.

Methods

The objective was to develop and validate an agentic artificial intelligence (AI) framework integrating automated imaging analysis, guideline-based reasoning, and trajectory optimization for ICH treatment. Fifty consecutive computed tomography (CT) and computed tomography angiography (CTA) datasets from patients with spontaneous ICH were retrospectively analyzed. The system performed multi-class anatomical segmentation of skin, skull, brain, ventricles, and hematoma, followed by volumetric quantification and JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) based structured encoding of imaging biomarkers. A knowledge-based module incorporating international ICH guidelines generated risk stratification and treatment recommendations. When evacuation was indicated, an automated trajectory modeling module proposed a patient-specific minimally invasive surgical corridor.

Results

Overall agreement between AI-generated and expert treatment recommendations was 82% (41/50 cases), with substantial agreement beyond chance (Cohen’s κ = 0.71). Discrepancies occurred primarily in borderline surgical indication scenarios. In evacuation candidates, the automated planner generated feasible trajectories in all 50 cases. Median angular deviation between AI-generated and expert-defined trajectories was 7.6°, interquartile range (IQR) 5.1–9.8°. AI-generated trajectories demonstrated equal or greater safety margins relative to expert planning in the majority of cases. End-to-end processing has a potential to substantially reduce simulated decision-support time compared with manual workflow.

Conclusion

The proposed agentic AI framework enables structured, explainable, and workflow-integrated decision support for ICH management. This system may reduce operator variability and enhance precision in minimally invasive evacuation planning.
