A member asked:
Had a ct w/o contrast on my head. found a 1.2 x 0.8 hyperdense lesion in the right frontal region. neurology appt is 5/30/14. do i need one sooner?

Good sign: That there is no emergency appointment is needed. The intracranial lesions do not need to be treated as emergencies if they remain asymptomatic and do not present an immediate threat to life. Rec.: if concerned, talk to your pcp for more information and appointment reconsideration. Good luck.
