The skull protects the brain from trauma but it does not absorb much impact from a blow. Direct blows may cause fractures of the skull. There can be acontusionorbruisingand bleeding to the brain tissue directly beneath the injury site. However, the brain can bounce around, or slosh, inside...
many patients with head injuries are treated and released from the emergency department after receiving treatment. Brain injury may be caused by a direct blow to the head, but shaking may also cause damage. The head is perched on the neck, and rapid acceleration or deceleration of...
(PET) from the microscopic to the macroscopic level have enabled this research. Therefore, brain injuries and neurodegenerative brain diseases can be linked through translational neuroimaging, which may provide new insights for biomedical research. For example, traumatic brain injury (TBI) studies using...

Disruption of this regulatory network occurs in response to brain injury; for example, during stroke. Evidence now indicates that cerebrovascular dysfunction is a feature of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. Accumulation of amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) in brain is associated with ne...
(2017) used dMRI tractography to predict brain dysmaturation in preterm infants with brain injury and abnormal developmental outcome and found that altered connectivity in the posterior cingulate gyrus and the inferior orbitofrontal cortex were associated with a delayed maturation; both of these regions...
