Association Between Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Brain and Cognitive Indicators in Post– Traumatic Encephalopathy

Abstract

Post–traumatic encephalopathy (PTE) is a disease that occurs after traumatic brain injury and is accompanied by diffuse changes in the brain. After a traumatic brain injury, scarring, atrophic, and dystrophic changes develop in the tissues of the skull for one year, which lead to post–traumatic encephalopathy (PTE). The patients with post–traumatic encephalopathy (PTE) have general cerebral complaints, neurological and intellectual–mnestic changes and neuropsychiatric disorders in the brain. In this scientific work, special attention is paid to the relationship between cognitive changes and the results of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain in patients with post–traumatic encephalopathy (PTE).
