Abstract
Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is one of the important causes of primary intracerebral haemorrhage (PICH) in older people. Lobar, recurrent or multiple simultaneous hemorrhages in older patients should raise suspicion of its diagnosis. A definitive diagnosis of CAA requires pathological examination of the affected tissue. However, with modern imaging techniques, it is possible to make a diagnosis of ‘probable CAA’ in patients presenting with PICH.
