BACKGROUND: T2*-weighted gradient echo magnetic resonance imaging is sensitive in detecting cerebral microbleeds (MBs), but there are few reports on the risk factors of MBs in different brain regions. Therefore, we aimed to investigate whether the risk factors associated with the presence of MBs in strictly deep or lobar brain regions were different. METHODS: This study consisted of 696 consecutive acute ischemic stroke patients from 6 hospitals in the Chinese IntraCranial AtheroSclerosis Study. We evaluated the number and location of MBs, severity of lacune and leukoaraiosis (LA), and etiologic subtype of ischemic stroke. Multivariable logistic regression was used to analyze risk factors of MBs in different brain regions.
