摘要: Trauma to the head may cause damage brain parenchyma. This intracranial is more probable in severe than mild forms of trauma. Despite this knowledge, physicians could not disregard risk injury forms; thus, many cases trauma, computed tomography (CT) scans are performed detect possible injuries. excessive CT scanning unnecessary radiation exposure for patients, which children and impose a heavy burden on society. Different studies tried decrease by establishing clinical rules predict These will help clinicians safely recognize at patients with signs symptoms perform when it really necessary. The need these prominent traumatic injury, where usually come normal level consciousness. chapter introduce different related indications scan after Mild injury.
