Terson Syndrome:CT Evaluation in 12 Patients AJNR 19:743-747, Swallow,C.E.,et al, 1998 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract CT findings in eight patients were suggestive of retinal hemorrhage manifested by a retinal crescent or nodule that was slightly hyperdense relative to the vitreous humor.There was a high degree of concordance between the retrospective and independent reviews.Retinal nodularity and crescentic hyperdensities are evident on CT scans in the majority of patients with Terson syndrome.Although findings are subtle and not present in all cases,in the setting of subarachnoid hemorrhage they suggest retinal hemorrhage and warrant detailed fundoscopic evaluation.
