RESONANCIA MAGNETICA CEREBRAL EN DAÑO AXONAL DIFUSO

Abstract

Diffuse axonal injury is an important cause of morbidity and mortality, and of psychoneurological sequelae. Findings are few, if any, in computerized axial tomography . MR is the most important diagnostic method for identification of the type of lesions and their localization. Diffusion is particularly sensitive for their detection, and MR spectroscopy can give prognosis information.
