Question

Can a 6-month-old baby undergo a brain CT scan?

Answer

Hello, according to professional opinion, a single brain CT scan for a 6-month-old baby usually does not cause significant harm to the baby’s body or brain. However, any medical examination should be based on actual need and conducted under a doctor’s guidance. Parents should not be overly worried, but they should also carefully consider the necessity of the examination and discuss the pros and cons thoroughly with the doctor.
