Subarachnoid hemorrhage is typically visible on an MR scan, where blood presence can be detected in the cerebral sulci. MR stands for Magnetic Resonance, and it offers various scanning sequences such as T1, T2, diffusion imaging, and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR). Although it may sound complex, these sequences can show high signals in areas of the brain sulci where normally there should be no distinctive signals or colors. After a subarachnoid hemorrhage, these areas show up as brightly lit on the images. Hence, magnetic resonance imaging is particularly sensitive to even small amounts of subarachnoid hemorrhage, especially noticeable in the diffusion imaging sequences where these bright signals are prominently visible.
