Synopsis
White matter structural changes occur when an athlete experiences a concussion. To determine if serum biomarkers are a good concussion diagnosis, it seems prudent to associate white matter structural changes to longitudinal biomarker samples. Longitudinal blood biomarkers and DTI scanning from 77 collegiate athletes were collected across 3 timepoints and tested for associations. Tau was found to have the most significant associations. It was concluded that tau is the most sensitive for white-matter micro-structures.
