Computer-assisted (axial) tomography in the management of subarachnoid haemorrhage.
A prospective trial of the role of routine computer-assisted (axial) tomography of the brain (CT) in the early management of subarachnoid haemorrhage is reported. A correct aetiological diagnosis was made from the  CT scan in 76% of patients. Early routine performance of CT frequently provides valuable information in planning management.
