Concussion & TBI Testing
Concussion & TBI Testing
We provide a unique TBI protocol that will objectively identify if there was traumatic brain injury from a recent accident.
The main function is our leading diagnostic test which will help determine the nature of impairment and corresponding treatment needed to optimize recovery.
Concussion & TBI Explained
Concussion
A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury—or TBI—caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or by a hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. This sudden movement can cause the brain to bounce around or twist in the skull, creating chemical changes in the brain and sometimes stretching and damaging brain cells.
TBI
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a nondegenerative, noncongenital insult to the brain from an external mechanical force, possibly leading to permanent or temporary impairment of cognitive, physical, and psychosocial functions, with an associated diminished or altered state of consciousness. Concussions are the most common TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury).
