Three patients with suspected iatrogenic cerebral air embolism had cranial CTs performed within 24 hr of onset of symptoms. One was interpreted as normal, one showed a large, right frontoparietal enhancing lesion, and the third showed evidence of bi-thalamic infarction. Follow-up scans 7 to 10 days later showed either single or multiple enhancing infarcts in all patients. Although CT proved a valuable tool in the diagnosis of this condition, one out of three initial studies were negative, necessitating a follow-up scan.
三名疑似医源性脑空气栓塞的患者在症状出现后24小时内进行了头颅CT检查。一名患者的检查结果被判定为正常,一名患者显示右侧额顶叶有一个大的强化病灶,第三名患者显示双侧丘脑梗死的迹象。7至10天后的随访扫描显示,所有患者均出现单发或多发强化梗死灶。尽管CT被证明是诊断这种疾病的一种有价值的工具,但三项初始研究中有一项结果为阴性,因此需要进行随访扫描。
