Images of a 20-year-old man who was a passenger in a traffic accident in May 1999; he had not been wearing a seat belt. Multiple traumatic microbleeds are shown in the white matter of the right superior frontal gyrus. Left, T2-weighted image; right: T2*-weighted image. Axial view sections obtained from the identical location. Multiple traumatic microbleeds, which are clearly shown on the T2*-weighted gradient-echo images, are not depicted on the T2-weighted MR images. Note that no T2-hyperintense foci are seen. GCS score, 3; GOS score, 5.
