Scope and Contents

Carbon dust drawing, with colour, of a cross-section of brain showing injury, including wall as cause of injury. Anterior coronal view of the brain: demonstration of how impact to the lateral side of the cranium disrupts the blood supply to the anterior brain and causes contrecoup damage on the opposite side to the impact due to rebound force. Numbered 10 and titled "Dyn. H.I. Ant. (b) Rebound."

Scope and Contents Posterior coronal view of the head. Depicts management of a left subdural haemorrhage with associated ipsilateral tentorial herniation through the foramen magnum. Subdural haematoma is drained via burr hole while fluid is injected into the lumbar spinal subarachnoid space – allowing upward pressure to be exerted on the herniated brain tissue, thus shifting it back to the correct anatomical position. Note: annotated on the back of the drawing is "Mr. Shaw, Wd. 20, June 1960". Mr Shaw was a...

Scope and Contents Double-sided drawing showing two coronal sections of a brain suffering from an injury, depicting how the posterior circulation of the brain can become disrupted.

Outline of a right-sided uncal herniation of the temporal lobe is also shown due to raised intracranial pressure. Labelled 'D. Temporal contusion with...
