case_images: Further diagnostic tests included hematology (no significant abnormalities), biochemistry [hyperglycemia (11.72 mmol/L, reference range 4.11-7.95)] and increased blood lactate (5.26 mmol/L, reference range 0.50-2.50), ultrasound of the thorax and abdomen (possible signs of right-sided lung contusion), laterolateral radiographs of the thorax (signs suggestive of lung contusion), cervical vertebral column (Figure 1), and thoracolumbar vertebral column, and non-invasive blood pressure measurements (80-115 mmHg).

(A) T2W sagittal plane, (B) T1W sagittal plane, (C) STIR sagittal plane, (D) T2W transverse plane at the level of C2 vertebral body, (E) T1W transverse plane at the level of C2 vertebral body, (F) STIR dorsal plane, (G) T2*W transverse plane at the level of C2 vertebral body, (H) 3D T1W MPRAGE sagittal plane, and (I) 3D T1W MPRAGE transverse reconstruction at the level of C2 vertebral body.
