Role of CT in Traumatic Brain Injury

Abstract

Background and Aims: Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is a significant global health concern, 
often referred to as the "silent epidemic" due to its widespread impact on mortality, disability, 
and socio-economic factors. CT imaging has revolutionized the diagnosis and management of 
TBI by enabling accurate detection of both primary injuries (e.g., hematomas and skull 
fractures) and secondary complications (e.g., cerebral edema). This study aimed to evaluate 
the role of CT imaging in TBI management by analyzing its diagnostic accuracy and 
identifying demographic and injury-related patterns to optimize clinical protocols and patient 
outcomes.
