Clinical Management, Neurophysiology, and Neuroimaging Complications after apparently mild head injury and strategies of neurosurgical management / Ralph G. Dacey --Mild head injury in children / J.W. Snoek --Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in mild to moderate head injury / Howard M. Eisenberg and Harvey S. Levin. What is a head injury? Head injuries are one of the most common causes of disability and death in adults. The injury can be as mild as a bump, bruise (contusion), or cut on the head, or can be moderate to severe in nature due to a concussion, deep cut or open wound, fractured skull bone(s), or from internal bleeding and damage to the brain.

Up to 10% of people will suffer a mild head injury (or 'mild traumatic brain injury') in their lifetime and up to 50% of those people will also find they have lingering post-concussion Reviews: 6. The probative value of other testimony regarding neuroimaging, however, is less clear, particularly for mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), also known as concussion. There is nonetheless some evidence that new imaging technologies, most notably diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), may be useful in detecting mTBI.
Read about the cause and symptoms of a head injury (Traumatic Brain Injury) such as trauma, fractures, bleeding in the brain, hematoma, and closed head injuries. Treatment depends on the type of head injury. Long-term recovery times and types should be considered. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs in patients of all age groups and is a significant public health issue. In the United States, million TBIs occur annually, 75% of TBIs are classified as mild, and costs are generated of $17 billion each year. Most patients that suffer from TBI will have spontaneous resolution of symptoms, but for some patients, symptoms may linger and negatively .
