“…Advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques have shown great promise in furthering our understanding of the injury and recovery processes that occur during dynamic periods of neurodevelopment (Dennis et al , 2018, Lindsey et al , 2019 . Research using diffusion MRI (dMRI) has revealed widespread disruption of brain microstructure in children and adolescents with moderate/severe TBI (msTBI) (Wozniak et al , 2007;Yuan et al , 2007;Levin et al , 2008;Caeyenberghs et al , 2009Caeyenberghs et al , , 2010Caeyenberghs et al , , 2012Oni et al , 2010;Wilde et al , 2010Wilde et al , , 2012Wu et al , 2010;McCauley et al , 2011;Treble et al , 2013a , b , 2017Johnson et al , 2015;Ewing-Cobbs et al , 2016;Faber et al , 2016;Genc et al , 2017;Königs et al , 2018, Lindsey et al , 2019Molteni et al , 2019;Watson et al , 2019) , which is less likely to be detected by conventional clinical neuroimaging. DMRI can model white matter (WM) tracts and assess tissue structure by mapping the diffusion of water molecules; it is particularly sensitive to traumatic axonal injury, a hallmark of msTBI (Ashwal et al , 2014, Dennis et al , 2017 .…”
