The maximum axial dimention related to "spot sign" on computed tomography (CT) angiography to identify patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) who are at high risk for hematoma expansion. Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), a CT angiography spot sign (i.e., active contrast extravasation) indicates a high risk of hematoma expansion
