Common Measurements in the Central Nervous System by Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Journal: Advances in Medicine and Engineering Interdisciplinary Research DOI: 10.32629/ameir.v1i2.1204
Abstract
On daily practice, during the making of reports, anatomical variants often appear, as well as injuries and different pathologies of the central nervous system (CNS) in which it is necessary to take some kind of measurements, to make an accurate diagnosis. These measurements allow the practicing physician to program and perform minimally invasive therapeutic methods or others that request a surgery of greater relevance. In this paper, we describe the most common measurements in the CNS by using computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
