Brain imaging computed tomography

All patients should have a brain computed tomography scan or magnetic resonance imaging scan to differentiate an ischemic stroke from a hemorrhagic stroke, as the treatment... [Pg.161]

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) is used to measure changes in brain size and volume and rule out stroke, brain tumor, or a cerebral edema. [Pg.516]

Although magnetic resonance imaging is very useful (especially imaging of the temporal lobes), computed tomography typically is not helpful except in the initial evaluation for a brain tumor or cerebral bleeding. [Pg.591]

Lumbar puncture is considered mandatory in patients with suspected bacterial meningitis but the procedure can be hazardous with a risk of brain herniation in patients with raised intracranial pressure, and imaging with computed tomography or MRI is recommended for selected patients to detect brain shift. Patients who are in an immunocompromised state, have new-onset seizures, moderate-to-severe impairment of consciousness or signs that are suspicious of space-occupying lesions (e.g. papilloedema - oedema of the optic disk) should undergo neuroimaging prior to lumbar puncture. [Pg.125]
