Recognition and reporting of key features - including a markedly sunken flap, ventricular compression, and significant midline shift (8 mm or greater) were associated with a two-fold reduction in time to cranioplasty highlighting the important role neuroradiologists can play in expediting definitive treatment and improving patient care.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/pYnjuRd7RZ474qG9uX3z-QoT9YB6weBeRBUqEZVVf6Y/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9jYWFi/NDFhMDA3NTgxNmVm/NDY3NDY4MjM0ZGI0/NGY4ZC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
