What sort of tests are used to determine if a brain injury has occurred?
August 24, 2023
How a person is tested for a brain injury varies based on several factors. These are the most common tests:
- Blood testing
- X-Ray
- CT Scan
- EEG
- MRI
Typically, the first test an emergency room will do is a CT Scan. But, many times, people who have concussions can be evaluated and sent home without the need for any of these tests.
