Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The "spot sign", described in 2007, has shown that a focal area of contrast extravasation within an intracerebral haematoma (ICH) can be correlated with haematoma expansion. Here we describe a case where time-resolved dynamic CT angiography (dCTA) shows the appearance of the "spot sign" only in later images. This shows the importance of timing of static CT angiogram that, if performed too early, might result in a false negative diagnosis. |
