Acute ischaemic lesions are associated with cortical superficial siderosis in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage.

Diffusion-weighted imaging lesions are more frequently observed in patients with acute lobar ICH than in those with deep ICH. cSS severity and white matter hyperintensity extent are independent predictors for the presence of DWI lesions, suggesting that CAA may be involved in the pathogenesis of DWI lesions associated with acute ICH.
