Answers needed about brain leasons?

My sister has white brain leasons and an Angioma in the temporal lobe. Mostly this causes severe migraines but her symptoms seem to be increasing... she was in the ER again last night with a Migraine induced seizure. Florida Hospital Saxon refused to do an MRI before sending her home to see if the Angioma was bleeding but they did a CAT SCAN. Can anyone give me more info about this subject? and what they may have been hoping to see on a CAT SCAN instead of an MRI?
Answer:
Acute bleeding is picked up much better on a Cat Scan, MRI is better for picking up lesions and after effects of a bleed.
