    This report details an unusual isodense acute subdural hematoma, potentially caused by cerebrospinal fluid dilution or coagulopathy. Early detection relies on subtle computed tomography findings and contrast enhancement.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroimaging
    • Neuroradiology
    • Neurology

    Background:

    • Acute subdural hematomas (ASDH) are typically hyperdense on computed tomography (CT).
    • Isodense subdural hematomas present a diagnostic challenge due to their similar density to brain parenchyma.

    Observation:

    • A case of an unusual isodense acute subdural hematoma is presented.
    • Subtle CT abnormalities and the use of contrast enhancement are crucial for detection.

    Findings:

    • Potential causes include dilution with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or underlying coagulopathy.
    • Advanced CT scanners and contrast enhancement aid in identifying these subtle lesions.

    Implications:

    • High index of suspicion is necessary for diagnosing isodense ASDH.
