Primary Blast Traumatic Brain Injury in the Rat: Relating Diffusion Tensor Imaging and Behavior [PDF]
Frontiers in Neurology, 2013 The incidence of traumatic brain injury (TBI) among military personnel is at its highest point in U.S. history. Experimental animal models of blast have provided a wealth of insight into blast injury.

Computational study of human head response to primary blast waves of five levels from three directions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Human exposure to blast waves without any fragment impacts can still result in primary blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI). To investigate the mechanical response of human brain to primary blast waves and to identify the injury mechanisms of bTBI,

Cerebellar white matter abnormalities following primary blast injury in US military personnel. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Little is known about the effects of blast exposure on the human brain in the absence of head impact. Clinical reports, experimental animal studies, and computational modeling of blast exposure have suggested effects on the cerebellum and brainstem.

Military Medicine, 2011 Explosions can cause devastating injuries by various wounding mechanisms. Injuries due to the primary pressure wave are rarely life threatening and those that are lethal are uncommon. We reviewed the pathophysiology of blast-related injuries and their implications for management.

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022 Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cavitation is a likely physical mechanism for producing traumatic brain injury (TBI) under mechanical loading. In this study, we investigated CSF cavitation under blasts and helmeted impacts which represented loadings in ...
