Please tell me what can i expect from a ct scan on my head?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Short exam: Ct of the head is a short exam and most commonly done without IV contrast to look for major abnormalities such as masses and edema from large strokes. Ct is the best exam in the acute setting to look for blood and skull fractures.
