Prevalence of Superficial Siderosis in Patients with Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy
Neurol 74:1346-1350, Linn,J., et al, 2010
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Superficial siderosis (SS) occurs with high prevalence in cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) and is rare in non-CAA forms of intracerebral hemorrhages. Thus, we propose that inclusion of SS in the Boston criteria might enhance their sensitivity for CAA-related hemorrhage without loss of specificity.
