Does Timing of Concussion in Season Affect Incidence and Recovery in Division I Collegiate Football Players? A CARE Consortium Study
CONCLUSIONS: In a multi-institution cohort of collegiate football players, preseason resulted in the highest incidence of concussions, while early and late-season concussions had significantly longer time to SR compared to preseason.

Ultra-high contrast MRI of the brain and spinal cord using directly acquired and synthetic BipoLAr Inversion Recovery (BLAIR) images
Ultra-high contrast (UHC) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a term used to describe magnetic resonance (MR) imaging that shows abnormalities with high contrast when little or no abnormality is seen on common conventional state-of-the-art MR images. It is achieved without the use of increased static or gradient magnetic fields. UHC can be accomplished by using […]
