Next-Gen Tool for Diagnosing Mild Traumatic Brain Injuries.

TBioScan™ Moderate TBI Risk Test Panel


This test comprises a panel of 3 blood-based protein biomarkers and is a crucial tool for diagnosing moderate brain injuries. It is particularly suited for individuals who have experienced auto accidents.


Auto accidents are one of the leading causes of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), which can vary significantly in severity. The types of brain trauma commonly caused by auto accidents include:


1. Concussions: Often resulting from a direct blow to the head or violent shaking, concussions can cause headaches, dizziness, confusion, and memory issues. Even mild concussions can have lasting impacts if repeated or untreated.


2. Contusions: These are bruises on the brain tissue itself, typically caused by impact with the inside of the skull during a collision. Large contusions may require surgical intervention.


3. Diffuse Axonal Injury (DAI): This occurs when the brain rapidly shifts inside the skull, causing tearing of nerve fibers throughout the brain. DAIs can lead to severe cognitive impairments or coma.


4. Coup-Contrecoup Injury: This happens when the force of an impact causes the brain to hit one side of the skull and then bounce back to hit the opposite side. It can result in damage to multiple areas of the brain.


5. Penetrating Brain Injury: Although less common, high-speed accidents can cause objects or bone fragments to penetrate the skull and brain tissue, leading to localized brain damage.


6. Subdural and Epidural Hematomas: These involve bleeding around the brain, either beneath the dura (subdural) or above it (epidural), due to torn blood vessels. Hematomas can cause pressure on the brain, leading to severe symptoms and potential loss of consciousness.


7. Intracerebral Hemorrhage: This type of bleeding occurs within the brain tissue itself and can lead to increased pressure, tissue damage, and other life-threatening complications.


These injuries can range from mild to severe, with symptoms that may develop immediately or appear hours to days after the accident.
