Relationship between post-traumatic amnesia and white matter integrity in traumatic brain injury using tract-based spatial statistics

Abstract This study used tract-based spatial statistics to examine the relationship between post-traumatic amnesia (PTA) and white matter integrity in patients with a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Forty-seven patients with TBI in the chronic stage and 47 age- and sex-matched normal control subjects...
