Brian Injuries Can Be Difficult to Detect

If you were in a car or truck accident, you may not comprehend the extent of your injuries. In many cases, the symptoms are so subtle that only a professional neurophysiologist can identify the injuries.

It is important that friends and loved ones be attentive to changes in behavior or cognition, as this may be the first sign that deeper damage has occurred. Prompt intervention and treatment is critical to a beneficial outcome. Significant healing occurs in the brain early on, and then slows down to a low level by one year following the accident.
