What does subdural space contain?
The subdural space contains a thin layer of fluid known as the subdural fluid, which helps cushion and protect the brain from sudden movements or impacts. This space is located between the dura mater (outermost layer of the meninges) and the arachnoid mater (middle layer of the meninges) surrounding the brain.
What does the subdural space contain?
The subdural space contains a thin layer of fluid known as the subdural fluid. This space is located between the dura mater and the arachnoid mater, two of the protective layers covering the brain and spinal cord. In healthy individuals, this fluid helps cushion and protect the brain from sudden movements or impacts.
What techniques might be used to detect subdural hematoma?
CT, MRI, NIR, angiography
The space above the dura mater?

Which meninx does not have a space deep to it?
The pia mater is the meninx that does not have a space deep to it. It is the innermost layer of the meninges, closely adhering to the surface of the brain and spinal cord. Unlike the dura mater and arachnoid mater, which have subdural and subarachnoid spaces respectively, the pia mater is directly in contact with the nervous tissue.
Why trauma not use contrast in ct brain?
Traumatic lesions to the brain are well seen without i.v. contrast agents. In particular, traumatic hemorrhage, be it epidural, subdural, subarachnoid, parenchymal or intraventricular, is spontaneously hyperdense on CT. Theoretically, i.v. contrast would be, at best useless, at worst counterproductive.
Who is most affected by subdural hematomas?

Where does the subdural space lie between?
The subdural space lies between the dural and arachnoid layers of the meninges.
Can dehydration cause subdural hematoma?
no
What is Bruising between the tissue and bone?

Where is the subdural space located?

Is a subdural hemorrhage a terminal disease?
A subdural hematoma (hemorrhage) is usually the result of a serious head injury. When it occurs this way it's called an "acute" subdural hematoma. Acute subdural hematomas are among the deadliest of all head injuries. The blood fills the brain area very rapidly and compresses the brain tissue. This often results in brain tissue injury or infarction and many times even death. In the elderly, subdural hematomas can also be a result of a slight knock to the head or falls.
