CT - Brain

CT Brain is a widely used imaging test that provides detailed cross-sectional images of the brain and surrounding structures. It helps in rapid and accurate diagnosis of various neurological conditions.

This scan is especially useful in emergency situations to detect brain hemorrhage, stroke, head injuries, fractures of the skull, and swelling of brain tissue. It can also help identify tumors, infections, and congenital abnormalities.

CT Brain may be performed with or without contrast depending on the clinical requirement. It is quick, non-invasive, and highly effective in guiding immediate medical decisions as well as long-term treatment planning.

This test is recommended for individuals with:

• Head injury or trauma
• Severe or persistent headache
• Sudden weakness or numbness
• Suspected stroke
• Seizures
• Dizziness or loss of consciousness
• Suspected brain tumors or infections
