The Value of Brain Scans in the Management of Suspected Intracranial Lesions¹

Denver

ABSTRACT

A review of brain scans at the University of Colorado Medical Center showed 30 patients with proved space occupying, intracranial lesions. The correct diagnosis was made in 21 using narrow criteria. This leads the authors to conclude that the value of the examination lies in its use as the earliest special diagnostic procedure so that more hazardous procedures will be avoided.
