now that you mention it ....

How can I tell from a CT how much damage has been done to the brain of
an aneurism patient. What do I look for?

Also, what are the relative merits of CT, PET, SPECT and MRI? Can
anything important be learned besides what is available in a CT?

Finally, can the patients prospect for a recovery be determined from
any of the above tests? (the patient is a relative)

Thanks
