Cerebral air embolism: Acute imaging
Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 1998Iatrogenic cerebral air embolism secondary to right subclavian vein recatheterization was imaged acutely by computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, CT showed intravascular air with misleadingly high attenuation values sampled to a minimum of -39 HU.

Cerebral Air Embolism Recognized by Cerebral Oximetry
Seminars in Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2009Absolute cerebral oximetry is useful in clinical settings to identify “catastrophic events” that may occur during the course of surgeries that would otherwise have gone unrecognized. This study reports a case in which cerebral desaturation occurred after commencing cardiopulmonary bypass.

Dysbaric cerebral air embolism in Hawaii
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1987Cerebral air embolism is a major cause of death and disability among sport scuba divers. To better define the epidemiologic and clinical manifestations of this infrequently encountered disorder, the records of all recompression treatments in Hawaii from 1976 through 1979 were reviewed.
