Accuracy of imaging markers on noncontrast computed tomography in predicting intracerebral hemorrhage expansion.

Conclusion The four NCCT markers can predict HE with limited sensitivity, high specificity and good accuracy. This may be useful for prompt identification of patients at high risk of active bleeding, and prevention of over-treatment associated with HE. Abbreviations HE, hematoma expansion; ICH, intracerebral hemorrhage; NCCT, noncontrast computed tomography. PMID: 32693733 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
