Portable computed tomography is mostly used in operating rooms, intensive care units, emergency service and interventional operation units. It provides a good diagnosis method in intensive care unit patients. It determines bleeding, hydrocephaly, cerebral edema which may occur in cranial cases. As a result, it gives early patient intervention chance. Radiation exposure is the greatest factor decreasing usage indication. It is predicted that the use would increase by minimalizing radiation ratio with technological developments.

Nöroşirürji Pratiğinde Portable Bilgisayarlı Tomografinin Yeri

Öz

Portable bilgisayarlı tomografi daha çok ameliyathanelerde, yoğun bakım ünitelerinde, acil servis ve girişimsel işlem ünitelerinde kullanılmaktadır. Portable bilgisayarlı tomografi yoğun bakım hastalarında iyi bir tanı yöntemi olanağı sağlamaktadır. Portable bilgisayarlı tomografi kranial vakalarda meydana gelebilecek kanama, hidrosefali, beyin ödemini belirlemektedir. Bunların sonucunda hastaya erken müdahale şansı vermektedir. Radyasyon maruziyeti kullanım endikasyonunu azaltan en büyük etkendir. Gelişen teknolojiyle birlikte radyasyon oranının minimalize edilmesi ile kullanımının daha çok artacağı öngörülmektedir.
