In the United States over 1.7 million cases of traumatic brain injury (TBI) are reported yearly, with the predictive correlation of cellular injury to impact tissue strain lacking, particularly for neuronal injury resulting from compression. Given the prevalence of compressive deformations in most blunt head trauma, this information is critically important for the development of future TBI diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Now, a study from researchers … Continue reading First ever imaging of brain cells’ reactions to concussive trauma in real-time.
