Traumatic Brain Injury: Clinical Diagnosis and Management

This special issue belongs to the section “Brain Injury“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains a leading cause of mortality and long-term disability worldwide, posing significant challenges in acute care and rehabilitation. This Special Issue addresses critical advancements in TBI management, focusing on innovative diagnostic tools and long-term recovery strategies. We aim to bridge the gap between emerging research and clinical practice, highlighting multidisciplinary approaches that improve patient outcomes across the injury spectrum.

We invite contributions exploring the following:

  • Novel neuroimaging techniques for injury characterization;
  • Intensive care management protocols;
  • Rehabilitation strategies for cognitive and motor deficits;
  • Pediatric and geriatric TBI considerations;
  • Prevention of secondary brain injury.

This issue seeks to compile high-impact research guiding clinicians in making informed decisions from emergency response to community reintegration.

Dr. Alessio Caccioppola
Guest Editor
