Overview

Head images such as CT and MRI, may be useful to check for brain diseases that can cause syncope. A CT scan can show brain structure and locate lesions and its surrounding tissues. An MRI uses magnetic fields to produce detailed images of the body, but it is a different type of image than what is produced by computed tomography (CT).
