A more systemic management of subdural hematoma with the aid of CT scan
Surgical Neurology
|February 1, 1981
Abstract:
Computerized tomography (CT) allows an easy evaluation of the current methods of treatment of chronic subdural hematoma. In a prospective study of 20 consecutive patients, burr-hole evacuation or conservative management monitored by CT proved effective invariably. All patients had returned to normal when discharged from hospital.

01:10Computed 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...

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...
