South Dakota: Brain Injury Types

Brain tearing is when tiny, microscopic breaks occur in the brain tissue after a head injury. This tearing can cause serious medical problems, disrupting the nervous system and impairing bodily functions. Each tear in the brain tissue causes a severing of the brain’s wiring or neurotransmission. Unfortunately, many brain tears are very hard to find. MRIs, x-rays and cat scans may not be able to detect these tiny breaks as these methods are normally used to diagnose much larger areas of the brain.
