A cerebral CT angiography was performed to further evaluate convulsions and severe headache in 51-year old male patient.

A 51-year-old male patient, complaining of a first episode of convulsions, generalized convulsions, and severe headaches after convulsions, was referred for a cerebral CT scan. The result of a native CT scan suggested a subarachnoid hemorrhage, featuring a ruptured ANCOM aneurysm. A cerebral CT angiography (CTA) was performed for further investigation.

The outcomes by Siemens Healthineers customers described herein are based on results that were achieved in the customer’s unique setting. Since there is no “typical” hospital and many variables exist (e.g., hospital size, case mix, level of IT adoption) there can be no guarantee that other customers will achieve the same results.
