Brain CAT Scan


BRAIN CAT SCAN

INDICATION FOR STUDY:  Syncope.

FINDINGS:  Computerized axial tomography of the brain, but without intravenous contrast enhancement was accomplished without difficulty.

I see no evidence of a recent intra-axial or extraaxial hemorrhagic process.  There is no mass effect.  The brain substance abuts the inner table of the calvarium throughout.

There is mild cerebral atrophy seen.

IMPRESSION:
1.                   Mild cerebral atrophy.
2.                   No acute intracranial process is identified.
