Some cases you have to, we do not do those types of ct scans on strok epts, but I work in a ghetto area so we dont have all the latest and greatest in technology. there hav ebeen some recent articles about the dangers of ct scans and some places using too much radiation.
Our problem is when we do belly scans of the local fatties all the fat actualy distorst the images becasue it has to travel through all the fat tissue to get to th eorgans we need to see.
