CT Brain - Subdural Haematoma (SDH) - bilateral
- This CT scan shows subdural haematomas on both sides - larger on the left
- The blood is of lower density (darker) than the adjacent cerebral cortex, indicating the subdurals are chronic
- A small volume of high density (white) material in the right subdural haematoma indicates relatively recent bleeding
Clinical features
- Headaches for 2 months following commencement of anticoagulation therapy for atrial fibrillation
