The study evaluates the impact of the introduction of the International Headache Society (IHS) criteria on the use of neuroimaging for headache diagnosis in a specialist outpatient center. The general indications for neuroimaging in headache are a matter of debate. International Headache Society criteria should improve diagnostic accuracy, consequently reducing the use of expensive diagnostic procedures such as brain CT or MRI scan.

Abstract

The study evaluates the impact of the introduction of the International Headache Society (IHS) criteria on the use of neuroimaging for headache diagnosis in a specialist outpatient center. The general indications for neuroimaging in headache are a matter of debate. International Headache Society criteria should improve diagnostic accuracy, consequently reducing the use of expensive diagnostic procedures such as brain CT or MRI scan.
