What tests can screen for cerebral thrombosis?

Normal clinical screening for cerebral thrombosis, the application of morphological detection. Generally speaking, there are two main types: head CT and head MRI. CT in the screening of cerebral thrombosis fully reflects the advantages of simplicity and convenience, short time, but in the process of screening cerebral thrombosis, for acute cerebral thrombosis, often it has certain defects. Normal acute cerebral thrombosis onset in 24-48 hours, CT can be developed. In contrast to MRI, new lesions can be seen on diffusion imaging within hours of onset. CT is sufficient to see older infarcts. Clinically, MRI is normally used in patients with acute infarcts, and CT is normally used in patients with chronic infarcts.
