Longitudinal Changes in Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy in Pediatric Concussion: A Pilot Study

Longitudinal Changes in Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy in Pediatric Concussion: A Pilot Study

Background: Nearly 20% of US adolescents report at least one lifetime concussion. Pathophysiologic models suggest that traumatic biomechanical forces caused by rotational deceleration lead to shear stress, which triggers a neurometabolic cascade beginning with excitotoxicity and leading to significa...
