Functional MRI Study of Attention in Normal Controls and Traumatic Brain Injured Patients

NCT00580918 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL

Last updated 2021-01-25

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study will be to assess the attentional ability of patients with mild to moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI) using the functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) technique. Methodology for specific aim 1: sagittal pilot scan, 3-D anatomical MRI, Whole brain echo-planar imaging (EPI), and functional MRI techniques with traumatic brain injured subjects doing a Continuous Performance Test (CPT) attention task and compare the pattern of activation with those of normal controls to see if there is a failure to activate frontal lobes in the traumatic brain injured subjects.
