Computerized axial tomography of intracerebral hematoma. A clinical and neuropathological study. 1976

J F Butzer, and P A Cancilla, and S H Cornell

Excellent correlation between computerized axial tomographic (CT) scans and the location and extent of pathologically verified intracerebral hematomas was demonstrated in eight patients. Superficial and intraventricular extension, hydrocephalus, and mass effect were easily identified; CT scanning was superior to angiography and radionuclide brain scanning in diagnosing hematoma and in determining its extent and associated ventricular size. Angiography was superior to CT scanning in demonstrating aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations as a cause of intracerebral hematoma. Computerized axial tomographic scanning is also useful in following the resolution of hematomas and in guiding surgical intervention.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D002532 Intracranial Aneurysm Abnormal outpouching in the wall of intracranial blood vessels. Most common are the saccular (berry) aneurysms located at branch points in CIRCLE OF WILLIS at the base of the brain. Vessel rupture results in SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE or INTRACRANIAL HEMORRHAGES. Giant aneurysms (>2.5 cm in diameter) may compress adjacent structures, including the OCULOMOTOR NERVE.
