[Computerized tomography in head injuries (author's transl)].
Computerized tomography permits the registration of minimal density differences of cerebral tissue. The information obtained by this method is comparable to gross neuropathology. Demonstration of intracranial bleeding and other posttraumatic complications does not present any serious problem. Most of all, it permits for the first time to demonstrate directly parenchymatous lesions of cerebral tissue after a head injury. The treatment nowadays can depend largely on the results gained by computerized tomography. So the care of the patient will be influenced largely by the demonstration of lesions affecting the survival of the patient.
