Biomarkers for Traumatic Brain Injury
"This book does a satisfactory job of serving as an introductory reference on traumatic brain injury and associated biomarkers available or in the works. My preferred reference is Textbook of Traumatic Brain Injury, 3rd edition, Silver et al. (American Psychiatric Association Publishing, 2019,) both for its breadth and detailed information. Brain Injury Medicine: Principles and Practice, 2nd edition, Zasler et al. (Springer Publishing Company, 2013) is also a good alternative. Although these two do not strictly cover TBI, they have better organization, more comprehensive information, and better readability." --Doody

Approximately 2 million people in the U.S. sustain a traumatic brain injury (TBI) each year with over 250,000 hospitalizations and 50,000 deaths. There has been a significant rise in interest in diagnosing mild concussions, particularly in the sports world. While imaging has been the gold standard, these procedures are costly and not always available. There is great potential in using serum-based biomarkers, hence the book seeks to enlighten readers on new possibilities.
