AB Spontaneous  intracranial  hemorrhage  accounts  for  about  20%  of  all  strokes,  but  they  are  often  devastating,  accounting  for  a  disproportionately  large  proportion  of  morbidity  and  mortality  among  stroke  patients.  There  are  two  types  of  hemorrhagic  stroke.  Intraparenchymal  hemorrhage  (IPH)  is  characterized  by  bleeding  within  the  brain  itself,  whereas  subarachnoid  hemorrhage  (SAH)  is  characterized  by  vessel  rupture  in  the  cerebrospinal  fluid  (CSF)–filled  subarachnoid  space  surrounding  the  brain.  IPH  and  SAH  have  distinct  clinical  presentations,  radiologic  findings,  etiologies,  and  treatment  modalities.
