When a Slice Is Not Enough! Comparison of Whole-Brain versus Standard Limited-Slice Perfusion Computed Tomography in Patients with Severe Traumatic Brain Injury
Introduction: Cerebral perfusion computed tomography (PCT) provides crucial information in acute stroke and has an increasing role in traumatic brain injury (TBI) management. Most studies on TBI patients utilize 64-slice scanners, which are limited to four brain slices (limited-brain PCT, LBPCT). Ne...
