CT Scan

CT Scan OF Intracerebral haematoma:

Plate 1A  

Multiaxial CT scan of brain showing:  

Irregular hyperdense lesion in left parietal region.  

Perilesional oedema.  

Compression of left lateral ventricle.  

Midline shift to right.  

Diagnosis: Intracerebral haematoma.

CT Scan of subarachnoid haemorrhage:

Findings:

CT scan of the head shows high attenuation (white

areas)

with obliteration of the ventricles. The diagnosis

is subarachnoid haemorrhage.

CT Scan of subdural hematoma :

CT scan of the head shows crescent-shaped hyperdense

extra-cerebral collection within the subdural space. The

diagnosis is subdural hematoma on the left /Right side.

CT Scan of extradural haematoma:

🛑CT scan of the head shows high density bi-convex area.

The diagnosis is extradural haematoma on the left/right side.

CT Scan of cerebral abscess:

Contrast CT scan of head showing a ring-like cystic

hypodense lesion on the right parietal lobe. The diag.

nosis is cerebral abscess.

CT Scan of  hydrocephalus:

🛑CT scan of the head shows marked dilatation of both

lateral ventricles with thinned brain tissue outside the

hypodense area. The diagnosis is hydrocephalus.

CT Scan of  cerebral infarction:

🛑CT scan of the brain shows hypodense area on the right

side with shifting of the ventricle to the left side. The

diagnosis is right-sided cerebral infarction.

CT Scan of meningioma:

🛑CT scan of the head shows hyperdense, irregular mass

in the frontal region. The diagnosis is meningioma.

CT Scan of liver abscess:

🛑CT scan of the abdomen shows multiple hypodense

area with ragged irregular margin within the right lobe

of the liver. The diagnosis is multiple liver abscess.
