Purpose To develop a highly generalizable weakly supervised model to automatically detect and localize image-level intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) by using study-level labels. Materials and Methods In this retrospective study, the proposed model was pretrained on the image-level Radiological Society of North America dataset and fine-tuned on a local dataset by using attention-based bidirectional long short-term memory networks. This local training dataset included 10 699 noncontrast head CT scans in 7469 patients, with ICH study-level labels extracted from radiology reports. Model performance was compared with that of two senior neuroradiologists on 100 random test scans using the McNemar test, and its generalizability was evaluated on an external independent dataset. Results The model achieved a positive predictive value (PPV) of 85.7% (95% CI: 84.0, 87.4) and an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.96 (95% CI: 0.96, 0.97) on the held-out local test set (
