Experimental Treatment
Group I: InfraScanner 2000™Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
All patients entered onto the trial will undergo at least one cranial scanning using the InfraScanner 2000™ upon arrival to the casualty unit at MRRH following CT. Patients will be scanned using the InfraScanner 2000™ following each subsequent CT as allowed by patient or representative. Patients will know the results of the CT but not the InfraScanner 2000™. The standard for comparison will be determined as follows. A CT result that is positive for hematoma will be considered a true positive and a CT result that is negative for hematoma will be considered a true negative. In cases where the results of the CT are negative for hematoma and the results of the InfraScanner 2000™ are positive consideration of further follow-up will be given on a case-by-case basis.
