Info
The calculation of neuronal loss is based upon the theoretical calculations for mean neuronal loss in large vessel occlusions (JL Saver, Stroke. 2006; 37: 263-266).
The estimation of the probability of a large vessel occlusion is based on the model of Schlemm et al. (2017), Stroke; 48: 2184-2191.
