Hi guys, my moggy went completely blind seemingly overnight two days ago. He was supposed to be scheduled for an MRI tomorrow on Monday but we pushed it back because we're afraid of him undergoing anaesthesia. I asked the vet if we could do a CT scan instead, as it's much faster and may not require anaesthesia. If it does require anaesthesia, I could order a device from the US that immobilises the cat for the procedure. Since we're so scared of anaesthesia, I think the CT scan would be an OK compromise. The vet is not in today, so the receptionist said she'd pass on a note to him tomorrow.
But I read that CT scans won't diagnose optic neuritis.
However, I'm mostly concerned about just ruling out the really bad stuff.
Do you think CT scans are appropriate for brain scans?
