From: Diagnostic confirmation of mild traumatic brain injury by diffusion tensor imaging: a case report
Three-dimensional diffusion tensor image of our patient. These images demonstrate a decreased Fractional anisotropy in the periventricular white matter adjacent to both lateral ventricles, indicating post-traumatic gliosis affecting the surrounding colossal fibers. fractional anisotropy reflects the degree of fiber organization, fiber directional coherence or fiber integrity. Areas with decreased fractional anisotropy are displayed in red.
