Density measurements with computed tomography in patients with extra-axial hematoma can quantitatively estimate a degree of brain compression

BACKGROUND: Extra-axial hematoma can cause significant brain compression. Guidelines for surgical evacuation include imaging findings (midline shift and hematoma thickness/volume) in conjunction with Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores and/or intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring. Physiologically, over...
