| Abstract |
Susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) plays a key role in an emergency setting. SWI takes the intrinsic properties of materials being scanned and creates a visual representation of their effects on the magnetic field, thereby differentiating a number of pathologies. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is now more often used, especially when computed tomography (CT) is inconclusive or even negative. Often, clinicians prefer to obtain an MRI first. This article will review the various hemorrhagic and non-hemorrhagic causes of low signal on SWI. There will be a focus on the distribution patterns of low signal on SWI in pathologies such as diffuse axonal injury, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, and cerebral fat embolism. It is important to recognize these patterns of susceptibility, as the radiologist may be the first to give an accurate diagnosis and therefore, directly impact clinical management. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 August 2018.
All research outputs
#20,530,891
of 23,100,534 outputs
Outputs from Emergency Radiology
#452
of 528 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#291,145
of 334,082 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Emergency Radiology
#20
of 20 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,100,534 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 528 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.8. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 334,082 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 20 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
