Abstract

This study is based on 26 car occupants who were fatally injured or who sustained a severe head injury in crashes near Adelaide, South Australia. Crash reconstruction techniques were used to estimate the acceleration of the head in 17 cases. These accelerations were correlated with the severity and distribution of brain injury as determined by neuropathological and /or radiological examination.
