CT scans are useful for trauma cases. Terri didn’t have a brain trauma, but oxygen deprivation. The neurologists cited by Johannsen specifically mentioned that in oxygen deprivation cases, one needs to perform an MRI and/or PET to get an understanding of the damage to the brain. A CT, in my understanding doesn’t get it done.
With the slight chance that her cerebral cortex is somewhat present, would it not make sense to do the one test that would establish a more exact conclusion? Since your case that Terri a "living being" should be "killed" on your belief she’s dead from a lack of a cortex (?), why not go the extra mile and check?
The courts worked on the poorly gathered conclusive medical information to which they were given. The courts are not doctors and hope that the medical evidence given them is exact..medicine is not an exact science, however. Cases abound of those patients doctors considered were "dead already" and lived to prove their wrong diagnosis.

The autopsy should answer your concerns shortly. RIP Terri.
