The gold standard for quick stroke diagnosis is a non-contrast computed tomography (CT) scan of the brain. This imaging technique is crucial for differentiating between ischemic strokes and hemorrhagic strokes, allowing for timely and appropriate treatment. Additionally, it helps rule out other conditions that may mimic stroke symptoms. Rapid CT imaging is essential in the acute setting to improve patient outcomes.
