摘要

Diffusion-weighted MRI is critical for diagnosing and managing ischemic stroke, but variability in images and disease presentation limits the generalizability of AI algorithms. We present DeepISLES, a robust ensemble algorithm developed from top submissions to the 2022 Ischemic Stroke Lesion Segmentation challenge we organized. By combining the strengths of best-performing methods from leading research groups, DeepISLES achieves superior accuracy in detecting and segmenting ischemic lesions, generalizing well across diverse axes. Validation on a large external dataset (N = 1685) confirms its robustness, outperforming previous state-of-the-art models by 7.4% in Dice score and 12.6% in F1 score. It also excels at extracting clinical biomarkers and correlates strongly with clinical stroke scores, closely matching expert performance. Neuroradiologists prefer DeepISLES’ segmentations over manual annotations in a Turing-like test. Our work demonstrates DeepISLES’ clinical relevance and highlights the value of biomedical challenges in developing real-world, generalizable AI tools.
