Despite this knowledge, physicians could not disregard the risk of brain injury in mild forms; thus, in many cases of head trauma, computed tomography (CT) scans are performed to detect possible intracranial injuries. This excessive CT scanning could c...

Role of routine repeat computed tomography of brain in patients with mild and moderate traumatic brain injury: A prospective study

BACKGROUND Computed tomography (CT) has become the primary investigative modality for traumatic brain injury (TBI) and there are established guidelines for the initial CT (CT-1). There are no specific guidelines for scheduling repeat CT in TBI. This study was carried out to compare the usefulness of unscheduled repeat CT (UCT-2) with scheduled repeat CT (SCT-2) in the presence or absence of neu...

Adherence to Head Computed Tomography Guidelines for Mild Traumatic Brain Injury

INTRODUCTION Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant health concern. While 70-90% of TBI cases are considered mild, decision-making regarding imaging can be difficult. This survey aimed to assess whether clinicians' decision-making was consistent with the most recent American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) clinical recommendations regarding indications for a non-contrast head comp...
