Advances in Imaging Techniques for Diagnosis of Severe Traumatic Brain Injury

Abstract

Luka Romeo

Recent advances in imaging techniques have significantly enhanced the diagnosis of severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). This abstract explores the utilization of advanced imaging modalities such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) in improving the accuracy and early detection of TBI. These techniques offer detailed insights into structural abnormalities, functional impairments and neurochemical changes, facilitating timely clinical interventions and personalized treatment strategies. Enhanced imaging capabilities not only aid in the initial assessment but also play a crucial role in monitoring the progression and recovery of patients with severe TBI, thereby improving outcomes and quality of care. patient progress
