Zusammenfassung

Introduction: Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) is able to detect damage of subcortical tract systems by measuring changes in fractional anisotropy (FA). Previous studies indicate that the extent of early diffuse axonal injury (DAI) correlates with the severity of the functional neurological deficits following traumatic brain injury. The present study investigates the FA change over time in patients with severe traumatic brain injury and the correlation with outcome using voxel and ROI-based approaches. Patients and Method: Ten patients (2 females, 8 males) with severe traumatic brain injury were examined longitudi…
