2 Radiological Manifestations of Abusive Head Trauma Skull Fractures Subdural Collections Brain Injury Spinal Injury 2

3 Patterns of Brain Injury Cardiorespiratory Arrest Respiratory Arrest Anoxia Normal imaging Contusional Tears Big Black Brain Associated Spinal Injury Infant Brain is different Delayed cell death 3

4 Infant Brain Very Different Relative size head to body(10% vs 2% wt) Weak neck Soft pliable calvarium Open sutures and fontanelles Lack of myelination Cell death mechanisms Receptors, biochemical cascades

22 Mechanisms of Cell Death Ferriero D. N Engl J Med, 2004;351:

23 Contusional Tears Confusing if pathology not known Characteristic of blunt head trauma in infants < 5 months Slit-like like cleft in white matter +/- hemorrhage Horizontal cortical tears at gyral crests May be associated with diffuse white matter injury Jaspan et al. Pediatric Radiology 1992;22:

24 Choudhary AK, et al. Radiology 2012;262(1): Associated Spinal Injury > 60% of children with abusive head trauma who underwent spinal imaging have associated spinal injury

25 Abusive Head Trauma Admission 24 hrs later 5 weeks old Metaphyseal 25 and multiple rib #, suspicion of liver laceration

26 Evidence of Spinal Trauma Later the same day Later 26 the same day

32 Secondary Impact Syndrome Class IV, case series 10 cases Initial head injury +/- LOC leading to post concussive symptoms Second direct or indirect (acceleration) impact while still symptomatic (hours to weeks) leads to rapid decline repetitive injury affect CT shows thin SDH, massive swelling Does repetitive presentation in AHT? 32 Cantu and Gean. J of Neurotrauma 2010;27:1557

33 Neurometabolic Cascade Ionic shifts Altered brain metabolism Impaired neuronal connectivity Disruption of normal neurotransmission Giza and Hovda. J Athle Train 2001;36:228-35

34 Can ASL Improve Detection? Normal routine MRI, 67 d, visual tracking concerns but normal on follow up. Normal routine MRI, 101 d, multiple rib # of at least 2 ages, bruising in multiple regions. Skull fracture. T2 TSE ADC T2 TSE ADC CT MIP

35 Can ASL Improve Detection? Mean Cerebral Perfusion 27.2 ml/100g/min Mean Cerebral Perfusion 71.1 ml/100g/min

36 Can NIRS Improve Detection? Frequency Domain (FD) NIRS Diffuse Correlation Spectroscopy (DCS) NIRS detected brain injury in neonatal hypoxic ischemic injury What about NAT? 36 Quantitative StO2 CBV CBFi CMRO2 Grant, Franceschini
