Preparing for a doctor’s visit helps you to get the best care possible for you or your loved one. Below you will find some information about traumatic brain injury (TBI), including some helpful information on discussing NeuroQuant with your physician.
NeuroQuant is a FDA cleared software that helps physicians detect and measure changes in brain anatomy. Physicians use NeuroQuant when making clinical assessments of TBI, which can cause changes in brain anatomy due to damage to the brain structures (e.g. shrinkage (atrophy) or swelling (edema)) caused by the traumatic event.
Physicians use several evaluation tools to make an accurate assessment of neurological complaints in traumatic brain injury patients. One option is having a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of your brain taken. The NeuroQuant analysis is part of a physician prescribed MRI procedure.
