No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study utilizes multimodal brain imaging to obtain quantitative biomarkers of brain injury and to improve understanding of the biological basis of brain pathology in adolescents with concussion. Adolescents with a concussion will undergo neuroimaging and neuropsychology assessments acutely and four months after injury.

Conditions

  • Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
  • Concussion, Mild
  • Acute Brain Injury

Interventions

DEVICE

MEG

MEG is a non-invasive functional imaging technique that can measure slow-wave neural activity.

DEVICE

MRI

MRI is a non-invasive imaging modality that provides measures of brain structure.

BEHAVIORAL

Neuropsychology assessment

A battery of tests will be administered by a neuropsychologist to evaluate the cognitive function of adolescents with concussion compared to healthy controls.
