Patient's question:
Hello. I am contacting you for a CT scan report. Continuous scanning from the base of the skull to the top layer at a thickness of 10mm and an interval of 10mm showed: slight widening and blurred margins at the posterior part of the falx cerebri. No obvious abnormal density shadows were observed within the brain parenchyma, and the gray-white matter interface was clear. The ventricles and cisterns were symmetrical on both sides, with normal morphology and size. Sulci and gyri were clear, and there was no obvious shift of the midline structures. No obvious signs of skull fractures were noted. Hello, does this refer to internal bleeding in the brain? Is the condition dangerous?Doctor's answer:
This statement cannot confirm intracranial hemorrhage. Subarachnoid hemorrhage is commonly accumulated in the vicinity of the falx cerebri, cerebral sulci, and cerebral fissures. Subarachnoid hemorrhage adjacent to the falx cerebri appears as widening of the falx cerebri. However, due to the volume effect, there are often some false positives and false negatives, and the results are by no means highly reliable. This situation should be integrated with clinical diagnostic symptoms. If there are symptoms such as headache and nuchal rigidity, subarachnoid hemorrhage can be diagnosed.
