Bilateral frontoparietal subdural hematomas. The right subdural hematoma demonstrates high signal intensity on T1, T2, and FLAIR, with internal septations of low signal, indicative of a subacute hematoma. Positive mass-effect is noted on the midline structures. The left subdural hematoma demonastrates low signal intensity on T1 and FLAIR and high signal intensity on T2WI, indicative of a chronic hematoma.
Case Discussion
MRI appearances of bilateral subdural hematomas in the subacute phase on the right and in chronic phase on the left.
