Brain Hemorrhage

Abstract

Steven Philippe

Trauma is the most common cause of ICH, and CT of the head is the initial workup performed to evaluate the extent of acute traumatic brain injury. MRI is increasingly being performed in the emergency department for the evaluation of traumatic brain injury, and MRI has been shown to be more sensitive than CT in the detection of small foci of intracranial haemorrhage or axonal injury.
