Abstract

The clinical application of MRI of a cat case of traffic accident was examined. On admission, the animal was unconscious and remained so for 2 days. Radiographs disclosed a fracture in the parietal bone. From the temporary unconscious status and the fracture, cerebral damage was suspected and an MRI examination was performed. The contrecoup injury in the cat case of traffic accident which could not be diagnosed by radiography was diagnosed by MRI examination.
