New way to diagnose brain injury (Eye Tracker)
 

The Eye Tracker is a new and promising method to diagnose neurological problems after concussion like injuries. To me it looks like a fast and inexpensive way to diagnose PCS.

The technology looks relatively simple giving hope that it will actually be used by medical personnel to diagnose lingering brain injury.

Interesting.

But what is the treatment?

Yes, I had seen this to. This article explains it a little more:

There has been a very accurate brain injury diagnostic tool available for over a decade. qEEG has the ability to diagnose brain injury with a 97% or higher reliability. It has been discounted because of one article written by a neurologist with an ax to grind back in 1997. The article has been soundly discredited but the damage was already done.

Maybe the Brain Trauma Foundation can use some of its federal grant money to promote the value of qEEG as a diagnostic tool.
