Title:
Yield of MRI in patients with spontaneous deep intracerebral hemorrhage
Purpose:
Hypertensive hemorrhage is the most common type of nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and it characteristically originates in deep structures, particularly the basal ganglia, internal capsules, thalami, brainstem, and cerebellum. While advanced imaging modalities like MRI can help uncover culprit lesions in cases of unexplained ICH, we hypothesized that the yield of brain MRI would be low in patients with spontaneous deep intracerebral hemorrhage.
