Synopsis

Keywords: Traumatic brain injury, Brain

The values of fractional anisotropy (FA) in diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and the mean kurtosis (MK) and mean diffusivityMDvalues in diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) were used to analyze diffuse axonal injury of brain Injury (DAI). We explored the diagnostic value of these three parameters in DAI and found that MK was superior to FA and MD. DTI and DKI could quantitatively analyze the severity of DAI patients and reduce the misdiagnosis rate of DAI.
