Resting state functional MRI studies have reported disrupted functional connectivity after traumatic brain injury (TBI) in humans. The types, time after injury, extent and location of TBI in humans are heterogeneous. Animal models of TBI offer a means to study the effects of injury on rsfMRI under controlled conditions. The goal of this study was to use independent component analysis (ICA) method to investigate longitudinal changes of functional connectivity in moderate traumatic brain injury in rats. Comparisons were made with functional outcomes measured by forelimb placement asymmetry and foot fault behavioral tests.
