Is contrast-enhanced CT indicated in acute head injury?

abstract：PURPOSE:The beneficial effect of endovascular treatment (EVT) for patients with acute basilar artery occlusion (ABAO) remains uncertain. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate clinical outcome of EVT for patients with ABAO and analyze prognostic factors of good outcome. METHODS:From our prospectively establi...
