Neuroimaging of traumatic brain injury.
In this article, the neuroradiological evaluation of traumatic brain injury is reviewed. Different imaging strategies in the assessment of traumatic brain injury are initially discussed, and this is followed by a review of the imaging characteristics of both primary and secondary brain injuries. Computed tomography remains the modality of choice for the initial assessment of acute head injury b...
متن کاملAdvanced neuroimaging in traumatic brain injury.
Advances in structural and functional neuroimaging have occurred at a rapid pace over the past two decades. Novel techniques for measuring cerebral blood flow, metabolism, white matter connectivity, and neural network activation have great potential to improve the accuracy of diagnosis and prognosis for patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI), while also providing biomarkers to guide the dev...
متن کاملTraumatic brain injury, neuroimaging, and neurodegeneration
Depending on severity, traumatic brain injury (TBI) induces immediate neuropathological effects that in the mildest form may be transient but as severity increases results in neural damage and degeneration. The first phase of neural degeneration is explainable by the primary acute and secondary neuropathological effects initiated by the injury; however, neuroimaging studies demonstrate a prolon...
متن کاملAdvanced neuroimaging of mild traumatic brain injury.
This article focuses on advancements in neuroimaging techniques, compares the advantages of each of the modalities in the evaluation of mild traumatic brain injury, and discusses their contribution to our understanding of the pathophysiology as it relates to prognosis. Advanced neuroimaging techniques discussed include anatomic/structural imaging techniques, such as diffusion tensor imaging and...
متن کاملImaging in traumatic brain injury
Conventional imaging of the injured brain relies on X-ray CT, with the Marshall score commonly use to grade the severity of injury. CT is very useful at identifying skull and facial trauma, characterizing surgical lesions, and providing evidence of significant brain swelling that contributes to intracranial hypertension. However, there is increasing recognition that CT may be an inadequate mean...
