Description Traumatic brain injury has become better understood in recent times, largely due to advances in neuroimaging and diagnostic assessments with more thorough attention to neurobehavioral sequelae following the injury. Determining what happened to the individual's neurological mental status at the time of the event, and analysis of the mechanism of injury, are critical to the diagnosis and classification of injury severity. TBI from blast/explosions has been found to create a distinctive pattern of scarring that involves the astroglial cells of the white matter, especially at interfaces between adjacent components of the brain.
