    Eleven women with peripartum strokes were evaluated by cranial computed tomography (CT). The interval between childbirth and the onset of symptoms varied from 1 day to 22 days. Computed tomography scans were done within 7 days of the onset of symptoms in six cases and in the remaining five cases on the 8th, 12th, 12th, 12th and 20th day, respectively. All CT scans were abnormal, 10 showing evidence of arterial infarction by low-attenuation lesions and only one of sino-venous occlusion shown by a high-attenuating haematoma.

    Computed Tomography

    Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
    The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

    Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System V: CT

    Cardiac computed tomography (CT) scanning is an advanced cardiac imaging technique that utilizes CT technology, with or without intravenous (IV) contrast, to produce accurate cross-sectional virtual slices of specific areas of the heart, coronary circulation, and major blood vessels such as the aorta, pulmonary veins, and arteries. The computer processes these slices to generate three-dimensional images. Multidetector CT (MDCT) is a rapid form of CT scanning that captures multiple slices...

    Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System VI: Calcium -Scoring CT

    Calcium-Scoring CT ScanA calcium-scoring CT scan, also known as coronary artery calcium (CAC) scan, detects calcium deposits in the coronary arteries. This test assesses the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), which can lead to cardiovascular events such as angina, heart failure, and sudden cardiac arrest.A calcium-scoring CT scan is generally recommended for individuals at intermediate risk of CAD without symptoms. It includes:Men aged 40-75 and women aged 50-75: Especially those with a...
