The method of intravenous and inhalation administration of 133Xe was used to study the hemispheric cerebral blood flow in the acute period of severe craniocerebral trauma in 39 patients. The authors revealed the peculiarities of changes in cerebral hemodynamics depending on the type of the brain trauma (diffuse, localized contusions, compression of the brain by extracerebral hematomas). The prognostic significance of some parameters of hemispheric cerebral blood flow in various types of damage is determined.
