    Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) significantly correlates with diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) lesions in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).

  • 2

    Severe total CSVD burden increases the likelihood of DWI lesions, with a modified CSVD score enhancing predictive accuracy in ICH patients.

  • 3

    Moderate to severe intracranial arterial stenosis (ICAS) is associated with DWI lesions, particularly when combined with moderate total CSVD burden.

  • 4

    The study analyzed 541 ICH patients, revealing that 25.3% presented with DWI lesions, highlighting the prevalence of this complication.

  • 5

    The findings suggest a novel association between CSVD and ICAS in the development of DWI lesions following ICH.
