| Popis: | Authors emphasize the existence of many problems in classification of cerebral injuries. The basic problem is to diagnose mild head injury and setting the clear distinction between it and severe brain injury. Dividing brain injuries in only two groups: commotio cerebri and contusio cerebri is too rough. There are many cases that cannot be classified in that manner i.e. severe commotio probably has some elements of contusio cerebri that are undetectable when usual diagnostic methods are applied. The special attention was paid to the states of modified consciousness: unconsciousness and the state of dizziness, which has the enormous forensic importance. This paper covers also all the forensic aspects of criminal and civil law. |
