Supplementary Material for: Possible Influence of Ethnicity on CT Perfusion Parameter Thresholds in Acute Ischemic Stroke

Introduction Tissue at risk, as estimated by CT perfusion utilizing Tmax+6, correlates with final infarct volume (FIV) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) without reperfusion. Tmax thresholds are derived from Western ethnic populations but not from ethnic Asian populations. We aimed to investigate the influence of ethnicity on Tmax thresholds. Methods From a clinical-imaging registry of Australian and Indonesian stroke patients, we selected a participant subgroup with the following inclusion criteria: AIS under 24 hours and absence of reperfusion therapy. Clinical data included demographics, time metrics, stroke severity, premorbid, and 3-month Modified Rankin Score. Baseline CTP and MRI
