How Do Imaging Findings Influence Treatment Decisions?

Imaging findings can significantly influence treatment decisions in toxicology. Identifying the specific location and extent of damage enables targeted therapy, such as surgical intervention or specific antidotes. For example, if imaging reveals renal damage due to toxic exposure, treatment can be directed towards renal support and detoxification. In cases of cerebral edema identified by MRI, immediate measures can be taken to reduce intracranial pressure. Thus, imaging not only aids in diagnosis but also in tailoring effective treatment strategies.
