Abstract
Background: Neurological disorder is identified as a severe cause of mortality among the patients. Given the severity of the disorder, various tools have been developed for the effective scanning of the symptoms and causes. Objective: The study intends to compare the two advanced neuroimaging tools i.e. computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for assessing the patients of the possible brain, stroke, and neurological disorders concern their neurological symptoms and signs. Method: The retrospective study was conducted and medical records of 151 patients were assessed statistically. Chi-square test was applied to the collected data. Results: The results of the study provided that multiple seizures (15.2%) served as the major cause of examination, followed by a headache (9.9%), visual complaint (7.9%), single seizure (5.3%), gait abnormality (3.3%) and altered consciousness (2.6%); whereas, speech difficulty remained low (1.3%). CT scan findings of the patients reported parieto-temporal area and development of acute hypo densities as the prime concerns, where its results remained insignificant (0.29). Using MRI, unremarkable MRI was majorly reported, followed by lateralized to one side, stable MRI feature, bilateral symptoms, and ischemic disease. The results of MRI were significant (0.00). Conclusion: The study concludes that magnetic resonance imaging is more effective for the evaluation of the neurological disorders as compared to CT scan.
Highlights
In the healthcare system, the diagnosis, management, and treatment associated with the neurological disorder are considered to be most challenging based on its integrations of the complex nervous system [1]
The present study has shown that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was the most suitable diagnosis method, clinically that helped in determining the actual situation of patients
The findings of the study reveal that the MRI scanning produces more effective outcomes as compared to computed tomography (CT) scanning
Summary
The diagnosis, management, and treatment associated with the neurological disorder are considered to be most challenging based on its integrations of the complex nervous system [1] It is because it entails high accuracy, precision, and dedication for diagnosing the disease and suggesting treatment which ensures the provision of adequate neurological care. Assessment of the literature and medical record provides that the nervous system is vulnerable to about 600 diseases [1] Some of these diseases are dementia, Alzheimer, epilepsy, and cerebrovascular. Objective: The study intends to compare the two advanced neuroimaging tools i.e. computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for assessing the patients of the possible brain, stroke, and neurological disorders concern their neurological symptoms and signs. Conclusion: The study concludes that magnetic resonance imaging is more effective for the evaluation of the neurological disorders as compared to CT scan
