Functional and Structural Integrity of Frontoparietal Connectivity in Traumatic and Anoxic Coma.

Objectives: Recovery from coma might critically depend on the structural and functional integrity of frontoparietal networks. We aimed to measure this integrity in traumatic brain injury and anoxo-ischemic (cardiac arrest) coma patients by using an original multimodal MRI protocol.

Design: Prospective cohort study.
