Abstract

Though some findings indicate that structural changes may persist several months and even years post-injury in children (Tasker et al., 2005, Wilde et al., 2007), few studies have investigated the very long-term structural consequences of pediatric TBI Methods This study investigated the integrity of the brain 10 years post-TBI using magnetic resonance (MR) imaging volumetrics in a sample of 48 patients divided into three groups according to injury severity (mild, moderate, severe).
