CT scan stands for computerized tomography scan. It is based on a series of reconstructed X-rays of the brain. It is a non-invasive imaging technique that helps diagnose many medical conditions. It helps to detect the presence of tumors, inflammation, blood clots in the brain, and other abnormalities. It is widely used because it is fast, painless, and cost-effective. However, it does expose the patient to a low dose of radiation.
