Figure 1. Transverse view of non-contrast computed tomography scan of the cervical spine at the C4 vertebra. The image shows subtle hyperdensity (arrows) in the posterior aspect of the spinal canal, which could easily have been missed. This raised suspicion for an acute epidural/subdural hematoma and prompted magnetic resonance imaging.
