Overview
CT scan is not widely used to diagnose amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. However, magnetic resonance imaging is used to evaluate the neurodegenerative process in ALS.
CT scan
CT scan is not widely used to diagnose amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. MRI and PET scan is widely used which shows structural changes associated with the pathological course of the disease. [1]
