PNR Head 05
History
6 wo M, concern for non-accidental trauma (NAT)
Main Findings
- Tiny subdural hematoma along the right tentorial leaflet
- Soft tissue laceration around the left ear
Teaching Points
Use the multiplanar reformats to your advantage. Coronal views are particularly helpful with looking for extra-axial hemorrhage.
You should follow a thorough search pattern for all cases, but when there is a question of non-accidental trauma (NAT), be extra conscientious.
