White cerebellum sign

Discussion:

White cerebellum sign, also called reversal sign or dense cerebellum sign, is encountered when there is a diffuse decrease in density of the supratentorial brain parenchyma, with relatively increased attenuation of the thalami, brainstem and cerebellum. This sign indicates irreversible brain damage and has a very poor prognosis, which is why radiologists must be aware of this sign 1.
