The efficacy of using unenhanced head computed tomography (CT scans) as a routine screening procedure prior to lumbar puncture in the emergency department is studied retrospectively by comparing opening pressure during lumbar puncture to CT scan diagnosis in 42 patients. No correlation was found between CT scan findings and opening pressure.
通过比较42例患者腰椎穿刺时的初压与CT扫描诊断结果,对在急诊科腰椎穿刺前使用非增强头部计算机断层扫描(CT扫描)作为常规筛查程序的疗效进行了回顾性研究。未发现CT扫描结果与初压之间存在相关性。
