can be seen on brain scans. A new study finds that brain scans taken during the lifetimes of athletes in contact sports, compared to changes in their brains at autopsy, showed that white matter hyperintensities were associated with neuropathological changes. The research is published in the...

Both lesions and tumors in the brain represent abnormal areas, but they are not the same. A lesion is a broad term that refers to any abnormal tissue or damage in the brain, whereas a tumor, is a specific type of lesion, characterized by the abnormal growth of cells. All tumors are le...
How Are Brain Lesions Diagnosed? The methods used to find and diagnose brain lesions depend on the symptoms. In many cases, CT andMRIimaging studies help pinpoint the location, size, and characteristics of the lesions. Blood and other lab tests may also be done to look for signs of infecti...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has a pivotal role in assessing brain injury in CO poisoning. Previous studies on conventional MRI have shown that particularly vulnerable areas of the brain include the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, basal ganglia, and cerebellum and that lesions of the globus pallidu...
On magnetic resonance imaging, the distribution of lesions implied a diffuse axonal injury involving the substantia nigra or ventral tegmental area. The existence of patients whose dopaminergic systems may have been selectively damaged by a severe head injury should be recognised because such individuals...
Lesions are formed from damaged brain tissue, triggered by vascular disease or injury. “We see them a lot in people who have traumatic brain injuries. So, a hit on the brain, on the frontal lobe, maybe could cause a lesion,” Habes said. ...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes damage through complex pathophysiological mechanisms. Deficits related to traumatic axonal injury persist in a subset of patients with no macroscopic lesions on conventional MRI. We examined two event-related brain potentials, mismatch negativity (MMN) and , to identi...
