JOURNAL ARTICLES:

Biomarkers and Diagnosis; Cerebrospinal Fluid Biomarkers versus Glasgow Coma Scale and Glasgow Outcome Scale in Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injury: The Role of Young Age and Inflicted Injury. (J Neurotrauma. 2007)

Clinical review: Prognostic value of magnetic resonance imaging in acute brain injury and coma. (Crit Care. 2007)

Diffusion tensor imaging during recovery from severe traumatic brain injury and relation to clinical outcome: a longitudinal study. (Brain. 2007) “These findings support that DTI is a clinically relevant biomarker in TBI, which may have prognostic value and also might serve as a tool for revealing changes in the neural tissue during recovery.”

Imaging after brain injury. (Br J Anaesth. 2007)

Indications for routine repeat head computed tomography (CT) stratified by severity of traumatic brain injury. (J Trauma. 2007) "CONCLUSIONS: Patients with any head injury (mild, moderate, or severe) should undergo a repeat head CT after neurologic deterioration, because it leads to intervention in over one-third of patients. Routine repeat head CT is indicated for patients with a GCS score < or =8, as results might lead to intervention without neurologic change."

Prognostic Value of Admission Blood Pressure in Traumatic Brain Injury: Results from The IMPACT Study. (J Neurotrauma. 2007)

The mayo classification system for traumatic brain injury severity. (J Neurotrauma. 2007)

White matter integrity and cognition in chronic traumatic brain injury: a diffusion tensor imaging study. (Brain. 2007)
