“…The frequency of traumatic brain injuries is high among young children and elder age groups due to road traffic accidents, work or sport accidents, firearms, and falls from height 3 . On the other hand, non-traumatic cerebral hemorrhage caused by hypertension (36%), aneurysm (36%), arteriovenous malformation (11%) and other causes (17%) 4 .…”

Background: Radiography is traditionally used as a complement tool for forensic examination. CT applications became widely used. Traumatic cerebral hemorrhage occurs in up to 15% of patients following head injury and non-traumatic cerebral hemorrhage accounts for up to 44% of all strokes. These two disorders are therefore very common. So there is a need for accurate diagnosis of cerebral hemorrhage form medicolegal aspect. This study aims to differentiate between traumatic and non-traumatic cerebral hemorrhage by using CT.Methods: This prospective study, was conducted on 100 patients with intracranial hemorrhage and divided in two equal groups (traumatic and non-traumatic cerebral hemorrhage) both groups were examined by CT head and the results were analyzed.Results: There was statistically significant difference between traumatic and non-traumatic cerebral hemorrhage groups in CT finding as regard type of hemorrhage with epidural, subarachnoid and intraventricular with P value (0.001, 0.005 and 0.001) respectively. Also according to site of hemorrhage in frontal lobe and subcortical with P value (0.001) equally. Conclusion: we conclude that equationFunction (f) = -0.976 (constant) + 2.873(Epidural) + 2.017 (Subarachnoid) -0.416 (Intraventricular) + 0.984 (Frontal) -3.047 (Subcortical) If the function (f) = + values, it will be traumatic hemorrhage and if the function (f) = -values it will be pathological hemorrhage
