At the same time, by collecting clinical data to evaluate patient prognosis, analyzing whether there are differences or supplements between clinical trial conclusions and previous theories, and ultimately guiding clinical diagnosis and treatment through the analysis of imaging biomarkers.Methods: In this review, by searching CNKI, Web of Science, PubMed, FMRS and other databases, the use of “spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage”, “hypertensive hemorrhagic cerebral small vessel disease”, “cerebral small vessel disease imaging”, “Based cerebral small vessel diseases”, “SMASH the -u classification” and their Chinese equivalents for the main search term. We focused on reading and analyzing hundreds of relevant literatures in the last decade from August 2011 to April 2020, and also included some earlier literatures with conceptual data sources. After screening and ranking the degree of relevance to this study, sixty of them were cited for analysis and elaboration.Results: In patients with ICH, the number of cerebral microbleeds in lobes, basal ganglia, and the deep brain is positively correlated with ICH volume and independently correlated with neurological functional outcomes; white matter hyperintensity severity is positively correlated with ICH recurrence risk; multiple lacunar infarction independently predict the risk of ICH; severe brain atrophy is an independent risk factor for a poor prognosis in the long term in patients diagnosed with ICH; and the number of enlarged perivascular spaces is correlated with ICH recurrence. However, small subcortical infarct and ICH are the subject of few studies. Higher CSVD scores are independently associated with functional outcomes at 90 days in patients diagnosed with ICH.Keywords: amyloid angiopathy intracerebral hemorrhage, hereditary cerebral small vessel disease, hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage, imaging markers of cerebral small vessel disease, SMASH-U classification
