Variation with Time of the Attenuation Values of Intracranial Hematomas

Abstract
Cases (14) of subdural, epidural and intracerebral hematoma, in which the time of the trauma or bleeding was known, were selected. Attenuation of samples taken at surgery showed good correlation with attenuation values determined by computed tomography (CT). The decrease in the attenuation of the hematoma from the time of trauma or bleeding was studied.
