Helsinki CT Score (TBI)
Helsinki CT score (Raj 2014): mass lesion type + volume + intraventricular hemorrhage + suprasellar cisterns; a higher score predicts higher TBI mortality.

Example
- Mass lesion type
- 2
- Intraventricular hemorrhage
- Yes
- Suprasellar cisterns
- 1
Result: Helsinki CT score 6 — higher predicted mortality (>= 3).
The tool opens with these values already filled in. Replace them with your own.
What the result means
- -3 to +14
- Mass type + volume + IVH + suprasellar cisterns; a higher score predicts higher mortality / unfavorable 6-month outcome. A prognostic score, not a diagnosis.
What you enter
- Mass lesion type
- Mass lesion volume > 25 mL (+2)
- Intraventricular hemorrhage (+3)
- Suprasellar cisterns
