#' Clinical data used to predict ischemic stroke
#'
#' @description
#' A data set to predict a binary outcome using imaging and patient data.
#'
#' @name ischemic_stroke
#' @aliases ischemic_stroke
#' @docType data
#' @return \item{ischemic_stroke}{a tibble}

#' @details
#' These data were gathered to predict patient risk for ischemic stroke. A
#' historical set of patients with a range of carotid artery blockages were
#' selected. The data consisted of 126 patients, 44 of which had blockages
#' greater than 70%. All patients had undergone Computed Tomography Angiography
#' (CTA) to generate a detailed three-dimensional visualization and
#' characterization of the blockage. These images were then analyzed in order to
#' compute several features related to the disease, including: percent stenosis,
#' arterial wall thickness, and tissue characteristics such as lipid-rich
#' necrotic core and calcification.
#'
#' The group of patients in this study also had follow-up information on
#' whether or not a stroke occurred at a subsequent point in time. The data for
#' each patient also included commonly collected clinical characteristics for
#' risk of stroke such as whether or not the patient had atrial fibrillation,
#' coronary artery disease, and a history of smoking. Demographics of gender and
#' age were included as well. These readily available risk factors can be
#' thought of as another potentially useful predictor set that can be evaluated.
#' In fact, this set of predictors should be evaluated first to assess their
#' ability to predict stroke since these predictors are easy to collect, are
#' acquired at patient presentation, and do not require an expensive imaging
#' technique.
