Cerebral Blood Flow, Metabolism, and Head Trauma The Pathotrajectory of Traumatic Brain Injury /

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has caught the ear of the general public in the last few years in the context of injuries seen both in athletes and the military.  Despite TBI being situated as a critical problem in society for multiple decades, the underlying pathotrajectory of TBI has only recently be...
