Overview

there are enhanced lesions in double delayed high dose CT scan of MS patients.

Other imaging findings

double delayed high dose CT scan:

In multiple sclerosis we have enhanced lesions in double delayed high dose CT scan. These lesions in DDHD CT scan are indicators of blood brain barrier, so this method is useful in the acute phase of the disease. After steroid therapy in MS patients we can’t rely on DDHD CT scan anymore because steroid therapy will dramatically reduce this lesions on CT scan.[1][2][3]
