Relationship between Dizziness and the Core Vestibular Projection Injury in Patients with Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
Some studies have reported that a core vestibular projection (CVP) injury is associated with dizziness following a brain injury using diffusion tensor tractography (DTT). On the other hand, there has been no DTT study on dizziness caused by a CVP injury in patients with mild traumatic brain injury (...
