The ABCs of Measuring Intracerebral Hemorrhage Volumes
Abstract
Background and Purpose Hemorrhage volume is a powerful predictor of 30-day mortality after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We compared a bedside method of measuring CT ICH volume with measurements made by computer-assisted planimetric image analysis. Methods The formula ABC /2 was used, where A is the greatest hemorrhage diameter by CT, B is the diameter 90° to A , and C is the approximate number of CT slices with hemorrhage multiplied by the slice thickness. Results The ICH volumes for 118 patients were evaluated in a mean of 38 seconds and correlated with planimetric measurements ( R 2 =.96). Interrater and intrarater reliability were excellent, with an intraclass correlation of .99 for both. Conclusions We conclude that ICH volume can be accurately estimated in less than 1 minute with the simple formula ABC /2.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
