Background: Antidepressants that inhibit the reuptake of serotonin (SRIs) have been related to the appearance of intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). Some studies have described bigger haematoma volumes in these patients. So far, no studies have demonstrated an association between SRIs and contrast extravasation (CE). We propose to investigate the rela...
