| Core Tip |
Imaging is vital after cardiac arrest, aiding diagnosis, management, and prognosis. A structured, multimodal approach-including brain, cardiac, chest and abdominopelvic imaging, echocardiography, and angiography-identifies reversible causes, guides therapy, and assesses injury. Whole-body imaging enhances diagnostic yield, enabling rapid, comprehensive evaluation and supporting improved outcomes in survivors. |
