Factors Associated With Remote Diffusion-Weighted Imaging Lesions in Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Methods: We prospectively collected data with spontaneous ICH patients from November 2016 to December 2017. In these patients, cerebral magnetic resonance imaging was performed within 28 days after ICH onset. R-DWIL was defined as a hyperintensity signal in diffusion-weighted imaging with corresponding hypointensity in apparent diffusion coefficient, and at least 20 mm apart from the hematoma. We compared two groups of patients with or without R-DWIL with the demographic and clinical characteristics, laboratory parameters, and imaging characteristics, by using univariate and multivariate analysis.
