Abstract:
Acute dizziness and headache are common yet diagnostically complex symptoms in emergency departments, with causes ranging from benign to life-threatening. MRI reveals a broad spectrum of pathologies, though accessibility constraints and challenges in patient selection currently limit its use in emergency settings. This narrative review explores the role of emergency MRI in acute dizziness and headache, discusses its diagnostic impact and outlines priorities for future research.
