CT scan may help identify the patients with bacterial meningitis who are at increased risk of cerebral herniation with lumbar puncture. Routine screening with CT scan may be indicated in such patients before undergoing lumbar puncture. Ct scan may also help to identify the complications of bacterial meningitis such as epidural empyema, subdural empyema, ventriculitis and cerebral abscess.
