[Intracranial hemorrhage in MRT]

About 10% of all intracranial findings in cranial MRI were hemorrhages, or findings associated with bleeding. There was great variation in the hemorrhages as a result of their location and their age, and this could disguise the underlying lesions. Therefore a knowledge of the typical appearance of spontaneous bleeding and tumor bleeding is necessary for interpretation of the MRI findings. During its course, cerebral bleeding shows all of the known interactions between biochemical and histological factors and MRI signal. Thus, an understanding of the variations during the clinical course of bleeding is helpful for a better understanding of contrast mechanisms in MRI.
