研究人员发现,DTI MRI扫描可以改进脑震荡诊断,并查明有持续症状风险的病人。 Researchers found that DTI MRI scans can improve concussion diagnosis and identify patients at risk of persistent symptoms.
剑桥大学的研究人员发现,扩散张力成像 (DTI) 磁共振扫描可以改善脑震荡诊断,识别有持续症状风险的患者. University of Cambridge researchers discovered that diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) MRI scans can improve concussion diagnosis, identifying patients at risk of persistent symptoms. DTI测量大脑中的水流动情况,并提供连接不同大脑区域的路径的详细图像。 DTI measures water movement in the brain and provides detailed images of pathways connecting different brain areas. 研究人员对1 000多名病人进行了研究,改进了脑震荡病人的预测模型,这些病人的脑震荡经过正常的脑部CT扫描,有可能帮助保健服务部门更好地针对那些有长期症状风险的人提供资源和支助。 Studying over 1,000 patients, researchers improved prognostic models for patients with concussion who had normal CT brain scans, potentially helping healthcare services better target resources and support for those at risk of long-term symptoms.
