mouth and slurred speech. The doctor suspects a stroke and immediately arranges a
computerized tomography (CT) scan of the patient's head to aid diagnostics. Discuss
why the doctor may have suggested a CT scan over magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI). Describe in detail the physical basis of CT.
The next day after the patient has been hospitalized the doctor decides to have a MRI
to complement the diagnosis. Name one advantage of MRI compared to CT. Describe
in detail the physical basis of MRI.
The are two main types of stroke: ischemic, caused by a lack of blood flow and

In short, barring an act of God or nature he will have no meaningful recovery. His wife is already suing the first hospital that treated her husband because they delayed performing the appropriate diagnostic tests. She and her daughter complain frequently about the nursing care Mr. Spahn is receiving now, and no one wants to take care of him because they are afraid of being named in a lawsuit.
