Relationship between initial Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and total lesion volume identified on the first scan.

Figure 1 Legend. Graphical representation of the relationship between GCS at presentation and total TCMB lesion volume on the first scan. Patients with a poor GCS at presentation ( < 9) all had lesions identified with SWI. Two patients with a GCS of 14 at presentation had lesions identified with SWI. These data points are over-lapping. All other data points for patients presenting with a GCS of 14 or 15 are represented by over-lapping data points. No patients with a GCS of 15 at presentation had lesions identified. A negative correlation was seen between initial GCS and total lesion volume on the first scan (day 0) (R = −0.867, p < 0.001).
