Eye-tracking vs CT scan for TBI - what are the pros and cons, and what does All Things Neuro use?
CT scans are designed to rule out life-threatening bleeding or fractures. Many concussion and mild TBI cases have normal imaging even when symptoms are significant. Eye-tracking and other functional tools can help identify objective patterns that align with concussion-related dysfunction.
- CT: best for acute emergency concerns (bleeding, skull fracture).
- Functional testing (like eye tracking): may support objective assessment of neurologic function when symptoms persist.
ATN discusses diagnostic gaps in mild TBI and how advanced methods like eye tracking can support more precise assessments: ATN article.
Important: if you have emergency danger signs, seek ER care immediately.
