Question
How should one treat issues from the base of the skull to the top?
Answer
Hello. I would like to consult a CT scan report. The report shows that from the base of the skull to the skull layer, there is a continuous detection of 11 layers with a thickness of 10mm and a spacing of 10mm, indicating that the posterior part of the brain’s saddle is slightly widened with blurred edges. No obvious abnormal density shadows are seen in the brain substance, the interface between gray and white matter is clear, the ventricles and cisterns are symmetrical on both sides, with normal shape and size, sulci and gyri are clear, and there is no obvious displacement of midline structures, and no obvious fracture signs are seen in the skull. This description cannot confirm intracranial hemorrhage. Subarachnoid hemorrhage often accumulates in the vicinity of the brain saddle, sulcus, and fissure. Subarachnoid hemorrhage in the vicinity of the brain saddle may present as widening of the brain saddle, but due to volume effects, there may be some false positives and false negatives, making the results unreliable. In such cases, clinical diagnosis should be combined with symptoms, such as headache and neck stiffness, which may indicate subarachnoid hemorrhage.
