Severe Brain Trauma Clinical Trial
Official title:
Brain Densitometric Assessment With Axial Computerized Tomography After Severe Brain Trauma.
Processing the Digital Imaging and COmmunications in Medicine (DICOM) of tomographic using Mannheim Lung Analyzing software (MALUNA®) , to obtain volumetrical and densitometric data of brain tissue after patients with severe brain trauma
Quantitative analysis of brain and structures in it, in terms of volume, weight and density,
in patients with severe brain trauma, using MALUNA dedicated software to process DICOM
images.
1. st endpoint: compare these data with those obtained by CT scans analysis of patients
that recur to this kind of diagnostic investigation for non-traumatic events and with
negative diagnostic related to cerebral pathological implication.
2. nd endpoint: relate data obtained with clinical evaluation of the patient (cerebral
physiology and outcome)
3. rd endpoint: evaluate differences in terms of volume, weight and density of brain and
its structures, between patients with diffuse cerebral injury and those with localized
lesions.
