Intracranial injuries are very common after trauma, so it is essential to know the radiographic indications and the existing differences that allow taking therapeutic guidelines to health personnel. Objective: To determine the tomographic differences between the epidural and subdural hematoma produced in traumatic brain injury, by reviewing scientific articles that address this problem for the early diagnosis of possible complications. Method: It is a descriptive study, which involves the revision of scientific articles, with an estimated validity of the last 5 years, for which it was used as a database: Google academic, UpToDate, scielo and PubMed. Conclusion: Epidural and subdural hematomas present punctual differences among themselves as their morphology, location, origin and tomographic changes according to the time elapsed since the injury.
