NEUROIMAGING AND CLINICAL-NEUROLOGICAL FEATURES IN CHILDREN WITH THE CONSEQUENCES OF TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY.

Abstract

To determine the relationship between neuroimaging findings and clinical-neurological manifestations in children with traumatic brain injury (TBI) during the recovery period. Materials and Methods: The study included 86 children aged 7–16 years who had sustained TBI of varying severity. Clinical-neurological examination, neuropsychological testing, and neuroimaging methods (MRI, CT) were used. The post-injury period ranged from 3 months to 3 years.

Keywords

children, traumatic brain injury, neuroimaging, cognitive impairment, neurological deficit, MRI.
