Magnetic resonance imaging of white matter changes in traumatic leukoencephalopathy

J Comput Tomogr. 1988 Jul;12(3):171-3. doi: 10.1016/0149-936x(88)90001-x.

Abstract

Computed tomography has become a prime method of examination after trauma. We report a case of traumatic leukoencephalopathy detected with high-field strength, heavily T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in a patient with minimal computed tomography findings.
