Assessment of White Matter Integrity after Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injury.

White matter (WM) abnormalities, such as atrophy and hyperintensities (WMH), can be accessed via magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) after pediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI). Several methods are available to classify WM abnormalities (i.e.

Long-term cognitive and neuroanatomical stability in patients with anoxic amnesia: A Case Report.

Background: Anoxia can result in selective hippocampal damage with associated impairments in declarative memory. Whilst memory impairments and brain structures are thought to be stable, there are little data regarding the effects of ageing or change over time in patients with amnesia from anoxic brain injury.

Methods: To assess change over time, we compared structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with data obtained over ten years previously in two well-characterized patients with amnesia (JRW and RS) who experienced an anoxic brain injury.
