Background: Traumatic brain injury is leading cause of death in developing countries. TBI mostly occurs due to RTA. Patients with TBI must assessed thoroughly and must notice the changes if present. Ct scan has become the best implement in radiological assessment due to a feature that it can properly characterize the temperament and site of the lesions. Method: It is retro-respective cross sectional study stated that 200 patients, admit in ED, from October 2019- January 2021 Medcare International Hospital Gujranwala, Pakistan. The results were evaluated by computed tomography for the type and location of the lesions identified. Results: By performing CT-scan it has been evaluated that Scalp hematoma was seen more. About 4.5% were seen in extra-Dural hematoma, 4% in non-hemorrhagic contusion, 12.5% hemorrhagic contusion, 82.5% in Scalp hematoma, 8% in subarachnoid hemorrhage, 17% with age related atrophy, 13.5% in subdural hematoma, 4% in inflammatory changes, skull fracture about 30% and plain examination were seen about 44.5% and mostly man (n=58) are involved in RTA as compare to the female (n=14). Conclusion: In Conclusion the frequency of scalp hematoma is 82.5% and the incidence of non-hemorrhage contusions and extradural hematoma has the same frequency. RTA patients have a higher risk of developing intra cranial hemorrhage and mostly occur in males as compare to females because mostly males are exposed to outer environment. Tables were used to describe the results.
