Dearborn, MI – A recent episode of CBS’ 60 Minutes explained how advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques can reveal traumatic brain injury among veterans. Those same techniques are available at the Center for Neurological Studies in Dearborn. “Veterans, people who’ve been in car accidents, people who’ve fallen and hit their heads, a number ofRead More
The Role of Advanced MR Imaging Findings as Biomarkers of Traumatic Brain Injury
Treatment of traumatic brain injury (TBI) requires proper classification of the pathophysiology.Clinical classifiers and conventional neuroimaging are limited in TBI detection, outcome prediction, and treatment guidance. Advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques such as susceptibility weighted imaging, diffusion tensor imaging, and magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging are sensitive to microhemorrhages, white matter injury, and abnormal metabolic activities, respectively, in brainRead More
