170 patients were examined in order to assess radiological changes associated with repeated TBI. Patients were divided into 3 groups.
Adequate assessment of symptoms of “transparency”, “specificity” and “stipple pattern” of fractures, taking into account injury biomechanics and a possibility of “concomitant” changes detected with computerized tomography, makes it possible to ascertain fracture “freshness” in 19.4 % of cases.
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance tomography can become a promising area of investigation for neurovizualizing objectification of chronic traumatic encephalopathy and cognitive deficits.
