Italian term or phrase: TIA
Diagnosi alla dimissione:
TIA in encefalopatia vascolare cronica

La TC dopo un TIA o un minor stroke stabilizzato

In un paziente con diagnosi clinica di TIA o minor stroke la TC serve a:

- escludere che il deficit neurologico focale lieve o transitorio sia dovuto a lesioni cerebrali di pertinenza chirurgica piuttosto che a un’ischemia;

- visualizzare un’eventuale infarto cerebrale oligosintomatico.
