The value of cranial computed tomography in high-risk, mildly head-injured patients

Our findings support the idea that a normal cranial CT scan in patients with fGCS scores of 13 or higher ascertain a low-risk MHI outcome and, therefore, such patients must be included in this category of traumatic brain injury. On the other hand, patients with cranial CT scan abnormalities should be included in the group with moderate head injury.
