What can people do to where and how does it happen. Early fmri (functional magnetic resonance measuring) where? aliztimers detection. New neurons (where you smell and part most important for memory) Cells killed and long term memory effected for about two weeks. Those who were aloud to exercise, less neuron loss. Failure to respond or notice objects on the side of vision opposite to the brain injury. More to the right and when the take them off they shift to the left and start to see in the center of their vision. Brain injury (not neglect) slower but figure out strategy. Neglect: not adapting to new things that are happening. A mild tbi is usually a closed head injury. Often consciousness is lost only for a few mins or person is dazed. Damage is on a cellular level hard to see. Tbi are cumulative: easier to get another, next is more damaging.
