Description
Summary:Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage has a poor prognosis and is considered the deadliest form of stroke. Many recent studies have shown that there are many mechanisms involved in the pathology of this disease among which one of the most studied and controversial is perilesional ischemia. The aim of our study was to assess the role of brain perfusion SPECT with 99m-Tc HMPAO in demonstrating perfusion changes in brain tissue surrounding hematoma.
