Abstract

A system and a method for monitoring a brain CT scan image using ASPECTS score. The method includes receiving the brain CT scan image of a patient. Further, a basal ganglia region and a corona radiata level are identified in a plurality of slices in the brain CT scan image. Furthermore, a plurality of anatomical regions, a plurality of infarcts and a plurality of black regions are segmented using deep learning. Subsequently, an overlapping region across the plurality of slices is determined based on the plurality of anatomical regions, the plurality of infarcts, and the plurality of black regions. The overlapping region and a predefined threshold are used to compute an ASPECTS score. The ASPECTS score is further used to recommend a course of action to the patient.
