Neuroradiol.1983 May 01; 4 AB - After head injury, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) scanning is, like computed tomography (CT), an effective method of distinguishing between intracerebral and extracerebral lesions. The location and shape of extracerebral collections are excellently displayed using the multiplanar facility of NMR. There are good grounds for believing that the problem of the isodense subdural hematoma encountered in CT scanning can almost certainly be overcome by the use of NMR imaging.
