An automatic technique for stroke identification, localization, quantification and prediction, has the steps of receiving a CT scan, pre-processing it to extract the brain region corresponding to a brain volume of a subject who has suffered a stroke identifying whether a hemorrhage is present in the brain volume and if so obtaining data characterizing the hemorrhage otherwise identifying whether an infarct is present and if so obtaining data characterizing it analyzing the results using a brain atlas and, using the results of the analysis, obtaining at least one predictive value characterizing a prediction about the subject.
