Timing of the onset of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is
important for treatment decision making, especially as
some patients visit hospital several weeks after the
onset of SAH. T2*-weighted (T2*W) magnetic resonance
(MR) imaging is regarded as a sensitive method for the
detection of deoxyhemoglobin or hemosiderin deposits.
The abnormal low intensity on T2*W imaging gradually
decreased until 90 days from the onset of SAH, but
persisted 16 years after the onset. We could predict the
day of onset with pure error }10 days in patients with
SAH within 90 days of onset, using our grading system
for T2*W images.
