Interpretation:
Brain scans done in multiple projections on the camera with and without perchlorate and by the rectilinear technique reveal a definite peripheral increase in tracer localization on the right seen in the posterior view. This is compatible with subdural disease.
Impression:
Abnormal brain scan - peripheral right abnormality compatible with subdural disease.
