From the case:
Hypoxic brain injury - white cerebellum sign
Download
Info

Diffuse cerebral edema with loss of grey white matter differentiation.
Hyperdense cerebellum (white cerebellum sign/reversal sign).
The thalami are also relatively hyperdense compared to the cerebrum.
Case Discussion
Presence of the white cerebellum and reversal sign are compatible with the clinical diagnosis of a hypoxic brain injury.
Take note of the diffuse cerebral swelling as evidence by effacement of the sulci and cisterns, tightness of the ventricles and loss of grey white matter interface.
