Brain Imaging (CT, MRI)

Brain imaging techniques like CT (Computed Tomography) and MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) are advanced tools used to visualize the brain’s structure and detect abnormalities. A CT scan uses X-rays to produce detailed cross-sectional images quickly, making it useful in emergencies. MRI employs powerful magnets and radio waves to generate detailed images of brain tissues without radiation. MRI offers higher resolution and better soft tissue contrast, making it ideal for diagnosing conditions like tumors, strokes, or brain injuries. Both methods help healthcare professionals understand brain health, guide treatment, and monitor progress effectively.
