Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a serious and global public health issue. Focal and diffuse are the two ways to classify brain injuries. Multi-echo Susceptibility weighted imaging provides phase with better SNR and CNR and R2*, making it a sensitive technique for brain injury. A comparative study of focal (fluid percussion injury) and diffuse (open field blast) TBI using multi echo SWI has been made in this study.
