Why would they want ct scan of brain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many reasons: There are many reasons to order a ct scan of the brain. Too numerous to list here. But i'm guessing your doctor has some clinical suspicion a process in the brain is responsible for your symptoms and is using a ct head to help make the diagnosis.
