Rapid MRI for Assessing Functional Abilities and Predicting TBI Outcomes
Sponsor: D.J Cook
Summary
Our project aims to develop a rapidly acquired and communicated MRI assessment and report that incorporates functional and structural imaging to convey information about functional neurological insults following traumatic brain injury (TBI) that are not typically visible on clinical imaging. Within this framework, there are two sub-studies. The first is a prospective study of patients with TBI who will have an MRI in the sub-acute period after their injury, followed by clinical assessments up to 90 days post-injury. A model will be developed to link MRI biomarkers to persistent symptoms of TBI. The second sub-study will use a focus group methodology to develop the report content and format with input from several groups of stakeholders.
