Neurological Emergencies

Neurological emergencies are critical conditions affecting the brain and nervous system that require immediate medical attention. Examples include strokes, seizures, brain injuries, and infections. In emergency radiology, imaging techniques like CT scans or MRIs are used to quickly visualize the brain. This helps doctors diagnose problems such as bleeding, swelling, or tumors. Rapid identification and treatment are crucial, as delays can lead to serious complications or irreversible damage. Quick, accurate imaging allows healthcare providers to make informed decisions about the best course of action to stabilize a patient’s condition.
