Cranial computed tomography in the abused child with head injury.
Cranial computed tomographic (CT) findings are described in 37 children with head injuries resulting from physical abuse. CT findings included subarachnoid hemorrhage (27 patients), cerebral edema (24), cerebral hemorrhage (11), and subdural hematoma (nine). Intravenous contrast material was administered in 10 children in whom there were neurologic symptoms or signs but no history or physical s...
متن کاملComputed Tomography utilization in minor head injury
Results Of the 132 cases referred for CT brain, 109 had a GCS score of less than 13 on initial evaluation. Among 109 cases with MHI, 90 were males and 64 (58.7%) were in the age group of 14-44 years. 78 cases were Road Traffic Accident victims, 17 were assaulted and 14 had history of fall. Twenty six (23.9%) had abnormal CT findings. Skull fracture was the commonest finding (19,17.4%), followed...
متن کاملRole of cranial computed tomography in predicting clinical outcome in patients with minor head injury.
BACKGROUND Optimal management of patients with mild head injury in the emergency department is still under debate. The objective of this study was to determine the diagnostic efficacy of computed tomography in patients with minor head injury. METHODS A cross-sectional comparative study was conducted in the Radiology department of PIMS, Islamabad in collaboration with neurosurgery department f...
متن کاملChronic rhinosinusitis: correlation of symptoms with computed tomography scan findings
INTRODUCTION Symptomatology, nasal endoscopy and Computerised Tomographic (CT) scan have been used to diagnose chronic rhinosinusitis. The value of disease severity score in the assessment of chronic rhinosinusitis has not been well investigated. Hence, this study aims to correlate the pre-operative symptom severity score as well as overall disease severity score of patients with chronic rhinos...
متن کاملPredicting Cranial Computed Tomography Results of Head Injury Patients Using an Artificial Neural Network
We conducted this study to determine if artificial neural network modeling would predict cranial computed tomography results in head injury patients using different combinations of clinical variables. 150 consecutive patients admitted to a regional trauma center with head injury were enrolled in the study. The CT was labeled with presence of surgically significant intracranial hematoma (SSIH), ...
