Neuronal activation in patients with mild and moderate traumatic brain injury during working memory tasks

Background and Objective Cognitive impairment in patients following TBI is a significant cause of morbidity both to patients and their families. Memory impairment is one of the most common complaint patients and their families have as it impairs patients’ daily function. Current neuroimaging mod...
