Decades ago as a young neurosurgery resident I was starting my morning with my usual first stop at the CT scanner. On the display was an image that literally was right out of the book. I called the ICU and told the nurse “you need to get the doctor to load that baby with Dilantin right away”. The Peds Resident paged me later and wanted to know how I knew without every seeing the baby or knowing anything about the patient. There are things you can “know the whole story” at a glance. Toxo brain lesions in newborns is one of them.
