CT Scan

[Debbi]

I had a ct scan on Friday looking for lesions.
I have been having frequent headaches that come
and go. How accurate is a CT in finding lesions?

The Ct will find brain lesions but MRI is most accurate in pinpointing detail. I was dx with 6 such lesions last Aug and had WBR- I have since had some reoccrance and am on steroids to control the headaches. I have to have another brain scan done but havent scehduled it yet> Feel free to email me if you have any questions. God BLess- Patty D
