Default PCS imaging with MRI

An interesting article about an MRI procedure than can identify changes after a concussion during PCS.

The informative paragraph is quoted below.
"This study found that communications and information integration in the brains of the people with post-concussion syndrome were disrupted among key default-mode network structures, and that the brain had to tap into different areas to compensate for this impaired function."

Thank you Mark. I was able to share your last article regarding football players with a friend who was contemplating if his son should play pop warner football. Thanks!
