Is It Concussion or Mild Traumatic Brain Injury?

Because concussion or mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) results in small microcellular changes in the brain, which can’t be seen on a CAT scan, diagnosis can be difficult. A person does not need to be knocked out and lose consciousness to be diagnosed with a concussion or mild TBI, says Tracy Shannon, PsyD, a rehabilitation psychologist at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. Often, a common symptom is initial confusion that resolves itself after 24 hours.
