    Background:

    • Head and facial trauma evaluation requires precise diagnostic tools.
    • Computed tomography (CT) is a cornerstone in emergency medicine for trauma assessment.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe common lesions associated with head and facial trauma.
    • To illustrate the characteristic computed tomography (CT) findings for these lesions.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of medical literature and imaging databases.
    • Analysis of computed tomography (CT) scans from patients with head and facial trauma.

    Main Results:

    • Identification of key traumatic lesions, including fractures, hematomas, and soft tissue injuries.
  • Correlation of specific lesion morphologies with definitive CT imaging features.

    • Conclusions:

    • Computed tomography (CT) provides essential diagnostic information for head and facial trauma.
    • Radiologists and clinicians can effectively utilize CT findings to diagnose and manage trauma patients.
