Abstract
Brain stroke is a significant cause of mortality and disability worldwide, with a substantial increase in the number of cases in recent years. The availability of new tools and instruments has greatly aided in the detection and treatment of strokes. Particularly crucial for effective treatment is the monitoring of the disease stage in the post-acute phase. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT) are commonly employed imaging systems for stroke monitoring. However, their lengthy acquisition times limit their utility in emergency situations, where immediate intervention is critical. Additionally, MRI is associated with high production and maintenance costs, making it less accessible and affordable.
Moreover, CT employs ionizing radiation, which poses risks to patients
