Brain CT can detect brain parenchymal lesions, intracranial space-occupying lesions, intracranial vascular lesions and other brain diseases.
1. Brain parenchymal lesions: brain parenchyma refers to the substantial part of the central nervous system composed of brain, cerebellum and brainstem, through CT examination can initially determine whether the brain parenchyma is diseased or not, for example, ischemic necrosis of brain tissues caused by cerebral infarction, cerebral atrophy and other brain parenchymal lesions can be found out through brain CT.
2. Intracranial space-occupying lesions: CT brain can also clearly determine whether there are space-occupying lesions in the brain, such as brain tumors, brain parasites, etc. CT brain can show abnormal images of brain tissues.
3. Intracranial vascular lesions: CT brain can also determine whether there are vascular lesions in the brain, such as cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral vascular malformation, aneurysm and other diseases, through the CT brain can understand whether there is a lesion and the location of the blood vessel where the lesion occurs.
In addition, craniocerebral injuries can also be detected by CT brain.
Brain CT is one of the most common imaging methods used in clinical practice, and it can be used to diagnose most of the diseases of the intracranial area, skull, and scalp.
