anoxic brain injury

Anoxic brain
injury following a hanging. Note the loss of grey white matter differentiation and small ventricles due to brain swelling.

is part of a series which can be scrolled interactively with the mousewheel or mouse dragging. This is done by using Template:Imagestack. The series is found in the category Profound hypoxia case 001. Computertomographie des Schädels bei einem Patienten nach generalisierter Hypoxie: Besonders die stoffwechselintensiven und somit hypoxieempfindlichen Regionen wie Globus pallidum, Hippocampus und auch die Hirnschenkel sind betroffen. Auch die Mark-Rinden-Differenzierung ist deutlich vermindert.

Computertomographie
des Schädels bei einem jungen Patienten nach generalisierter Hypoxie: Die stoffwechselintensiven und somit hypoxieempfindlichen Regionen hier vor allem Globus pallidum sind betroffen und somit deutlich hypodens.

Schwerer
hypoxischer Hirnschaden mit aufgehobener Mark-Rinden-Differenzierung. Computertomographie axial.



Hypoxic
ischaemic encephalopathy. Diffusion restriction seen in both cerebellar hemispheres.

Hypoxic
ischaemic encephalopathy. Diffusion restriction seen in both cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia and thalami.

Hypoxic
ischaemic encephalopathy. Both cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia and thalami show low ADC map values.

Hypoxic
ischaemic encephalopathy. T2 hyperintensity seen in both cerebellar hemispheres.

Hypoxic
ischaemic encephalopathy. FLAIR Hyperintensity seen in both cerebellar hemispheres.

Acute carbon
monoxide poisoning and hypoxic-ischaemic brain injury. Diffuse hypoattenuation of gray matter in cerebral cortex and effacement of cerebral sulci, obliteration of the fourth ventricle and the basal cisterns.

Acute carbon
monoxide poisoning and hypoxic-ischaemic brain injury. Bilateral basal ganglia low density (lenticular nucleus, head of the caudate nucleus and thalamus) and diffuse hypo-attenuation of gray matter in cerebral cortex with relative preservation of white matter.

Anoxic brain injury, also known as global hypoxic-ischemic injury, is seen in all age groups (from antenatal to the elderly) as a result of numerous etiologies. The pattern of injury depends on a number of factors including:
- age of the patient (brain maturity)
- the severity of the hypoxic-ischemic insult
- duration of the hypoxic-ischemic insult
- timing of imaging studies: early imaging findings can be subtle and are often overlooked
