Identification of structural abnormalities in chronic
traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains challenging because
the brain often appears quite normal on conventional CT
and MRI scans. Using an automatic volume-based
morphometry toolbox, we have evaluated atrophy in
chronic moderate and severe TBI that is associated with
severity of cognitive deficit. Our results suggest the
usefulness of this toolbox in clinical settings for fast
volumetric analysis without complex post-processing
steps.
