Summary

This study followed 170 older adults who had a type of stroke called lobar intracerebral hemorrhage caused by cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Researchers wanted to see if a specific finding on MRI scans, called cortical superficial siderosis (cSS), could help predict who would have another stroke. Participants were monitored for up to two years to track any new strokes and related symptoms.
