Unfortunately detecting and quantifying cerebral infractions from MRI a complex topic and I can’t describe a step by step solution here. A lot depends on the quality and the type of the MRI in terms of how well different tissues are imaged. I know you have already been trying to look for a solution, but probably best would be to study the underlying publications around hemorrhagic stroke imaging so you have a better idea what can and cannot be reliably imaged. It’s an active research topic so I’m sure you will find many useful papers on the topic.

For reference here’s the [other post](https://discourse.slicer.org/t/calculate-the-volume-of-cerebrospinal-fluid-and-the-volume-of-intracranial-hemorrhage/29317).
