Figure 4


Fig 4. Images obtained at 7 and 26 days postnatal age for follow-up of bilateral occipital SDH in a neonate with extra-axial collections. Axial T2, T1, gradient-refocused echo (GRE), and FLAIR images (left to right, top row) show CSF-intensity frontal subarachnoid collections that were present since birth. Also note a thin linear T1 hyperintense GRE hypointense bilateral posterior occipital SDH. At 26 days postnatal age (bottom row), left frontal subdural collections that do not conform to CSF signal intensity are present, consistent with spontaneous SDH. The patient had no history of trauma and had a negative evaluation for NAI.
