Abstract: | Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is traditionally considered to be an ineffective method for diagnosing acutest intracerebral hematomas (ICH). The present study was to estimate the real capacities of MRI in this brain pathology. MRI was performed in 54 patients in accordance with the standard protocol. The diagnosis was verified at autopsy. ICH was ascertained to have a specific MRI pattern. The study demonstrated the high efficiency of MRI in the acutest period. |
