Change in structural brain network abnormalities after traumatic brain injury determines post-injury recovery [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
The trajectory of an individual's recovery after traumatic brain injury (TBI) is heterogeneous, with complete recovery in some cases but persistent disability in others. We hypothesized that changes in structural brain network abnormalities guide the trajectory of an individual's recovery post-injury.
