Clot perviousness measurement. Clot permeability was assessed using CT and CTA. Acquired non-contrast CT (A) and CTA (B) images of a representative patient without DM, and digitally zoomed (C, D) representative images of a patient with ahDM depict an occlusive clot in the M1 segment. Regions of interest of the clot assessed on non-contrast CT (A, C) and CTA (B, D). E δHU was significantly lower in patients with ahDM than in patients without DM. CT, computed tomography; CTA, computed tomography angiography; ahDM, admission hyperglycemia diabetes mellitus; δHU, Absolute thrombus perviousness; M1, first segment of the middle cerebral artery
