Prefrontal compensatory engagement in TBI is due to altered functional engagement of existing networks and not functional reorganization
Functional neuroimaging studies of traumatic brain injury (TBI) have demonstrated altered neural recruitment, specifically within prefrontal cortex (PFC). This is manifest typically as increased recruitment of homologous regions of PFC (e.g. right ventrolateral PFC during performance of a verbal wo...
