Abstract

Diffusion-weighted MRI, a type of MR technique that can distinguish between cerebral fat embolism and diffuse axonal injury, is presented in this report. Emergency physicians should consider using diffusion-weighted imaging in unconscious trauma patients when their brain CT scans are unremarkable.
