Brain Injury Programs

At CNS, we offer advanced MRI and cutting-edge diagnoses to individuals who have sustained brain injury. These injuries can be caused by a variety of conditions and are manifested to varying degrees within each individual.

We take the mystery out of TBI’s

TBI occurs frequently in the U.S. with 1.7 million new cases annually, from motor vehicle crashes, assaults, falls, sports concussion and, in the case of military personnel, blast injuries. Mild- to moderate-TBI accounts for about three of every four TBI cases and are the most difficult brain injuries to diagnose.

Individuals with the following conditions could be candidates for our advanced diagnostic research, education, and testing:
