[Correlation of computer tomographic findings and psychologic test results in patients with craniocerebral injury].

102 Patients with severe head injuries were examined using computed tomography and psychological tests in the rehabilitation phase. Significant correlations were found between the psychological test results on the one hand and cortical atrophia demonstrated by computed tomography as well as the transverse diameter of the third ventricle on the other. The index of cella media and the contusions of differing localisation did not show any significant correlation with the psychologic test results. Professional re-integration could be most clearly placed in relation to the duration of disease, the intellectual capacity, and irreversible changes of personality; however, there was but little relation to the findings obtained via computerized tomography.
