Overview
There are no CT scan findings associated with [disease name].
OR
[Location] CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on CT scan suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].
OR
There are no CT scan findings associated with [disease name]. However, a CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of complications of [disease name], which include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].
CT scan
There are no CT scan findings associated with pulseless electrical activity. However it can be used to identify some of the causes of pulseless electrical activity like cardiac tamponade, tension pneumothorax. CT scan provides pivotal information about the underlying cause of pericardial effusion based on attenuation measurements of collection.[1][2][3][4][5]
- The following are the findings on CT scan:
