The volume of a hematoma associated with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage can be calculated from the CT image.
Patient: hematoma from spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage
Parameters:
(1) S = area in the maximally involved slice in square cm
(2) H = height of the hematoma (number of slices with hematoma times the slice thickness in cm)
H =
= (number of slices) * (slice thickness)
volume of hematoma in cubic cm =
= (0.5) * S * H
= PI() /6 * S * H
