A shattered skull, brain tissue leaking out... What doctors found when a road accident patient arrived at the hospital. Read on to know how the little girl's life was saved.
Head injury is serious when there is loss of consciousness for minutes to hours, persistent vomiting, seizures, weakness or numbness in fingers or toes, loss of coordination, slurred speech and coma, doctors say.
A recent breakthrough study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences Nexus, has cast a spotlight on the role of a protein called Snail in the brain's response to injuries.
As per experts, there is nothing like a minor concussion and it must be taken seriously. A study shows that almost half of the people who suffer a concussion are not fully recovered even after six months.

They are usually not life-threatening but can cause serious symptoms that might need a doctor's attention
University of Michigan researcher Frederick Korley says early and accurate estimates of traumatic brain injury can help doctors determine its severity.
While a new research has revealedthat animal-assisted therapy can foster ability to handle social interaction and emotional involvement in patients with brain injury, here we tell you everything you need to know about this new treatment option.
Falls can be one of the leading causes of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in children and older adults. Falls can also lead to accidental death, an unintentional head injury, broken bones, and hip fracture.
Head injuries in early or mid-life may worsen cognitive decline and accelerate some dementia symptoms, suggests a new study. Here are some tips to prevent head injury and avoid complications later in life.
People who suffer from traumatic brain injury (TBI) are at much higher risk of developing neurodegenerative disease or dementia, particularly Alzheimer's disease, says a new study.
Scientists have overcome the biggest obstacle to treating neurological disorders - delivering therapeutics across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and into the brain has been a challenge.
Researchers have developed an AI algorithm that can successfully detect, segment, quantify and differentiate different types of brain injuries. Also, know the risk factors for brain injuries to prevent them for occurring.
Blue light therapy promotes better sleep, which, is necessary for healing mild traumatic brain injury.
If you have a loved one who has suffered a traumatic brain injury, you will have to be understanding and really, really patient. Here is all you need to know about this condition so that you can help him or her fight it better.
During a recent research conducted at the University of California, biologists found some of the genes that are affected by traumatic brain injury, which has recently been associated with neurotic behavior in humans. Notably, traumatic brain injury has been linked to depression, anxiety, and schizophrenia.
According to a recent study, biologists have examined how head injuries can badly affect individual cells and genes that can cause serious brain disorders. Know more about this.
Researchers introduced a new set of guidelines for rehabilitation of patients with moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), incorporating insights from rehabilitation professionals responsible for providing care from initial assessment through long-term follow-up.
Researchers reproduced the effects of traumatic brain injury in a petri dish and successfully stimulated the recovery in neuron cells.

It is a chronic neurological disorder that affects the brain's ability to control sleep.
