CT scan (non-contrast) demonstrates a right-sided chronic subdural hemorrhage (SDH) resulting in midline shift. Note that the collection is slightly hyperdense compared to CSF. A small amount of hyperdense material (blood presumably) is seen layering dependently.
Case Discussion
The main differential, in this case, is that of a subdural hygroma. Slight hyperdensity favors a chronic subdural hematoma.
