Popis: Abstract Lobar cerebral microbleeds are a characteristic neuroimaging finding in cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) but can also be found in hypertensive arteriolosclerosis. We aimed to investigate whether CAA is more associated with intracortical lobar microbleeds than hypertensive arteriosclerosis. Ninety-one survivors of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage with at least one lobar microbleed were included and underwent brain MRI and amyloid PET. We categorized lobar microbleeds as intracortical, juxtacortical, or subcortical. We assessed the associations between the lobar microbleed categories and microangiopathy subtypes or cerebral amyloid load based on the Pittsburgh Compound-B PET standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR). Patients with CAA had a higher prevalence of intracortical lobar microbleeds (80.0% vs. 50.8%, P = 0.011) and lower prevalence of subcortical lobar microbleeds (13.3% vs. 60.1%, P
