Brain aneurysms are a potentially fatal medical condition that may exist without any symptoms until they rupture. CT scans offer one way to learn more about the location, size, and shape of a ...

Brain aneurysms can be fatal and may be difficult to detect. Medical scans such as MRIs and other tests with contrast can help doctors determine the presence, location, and shape of brain aneurysms.

Your local radiologist, however, may not be comfortable interpreting CT scans without the contrast and might have the final say.

Sedatives, facial trauma, or metabolic disturbances can cloud that picture. Many centers have turned to computed-tomography flow imaging, betting that a scan can settle what the stethoscope cannot. In ...

In certain cases, a new method can provide as much information from brain images taken with computed tomography (CT) as images captured with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

A new study finds that a brain device for traumatic brain injury reduces the need for CT scans by over 30 percent.

They've also found that using the software can help doctors detect pulmonary embolism by measuring and finding blood mass changes with a simple non-contrast, inhalation and exhalation CT scan.
