Brain Metabolite Levels in Sedentary Women and Non-contact Athletes Differ From Contact Athletes

Brain Metabolite Levels in Sedentary Women and Non-contact Athletes Differ From Contact Athletes

White matter tracts are known to be susceptible to injury following concussion. The objective of this study was to determine whether contact play in sport could alter white matter metabolite levels in female varsity athletes independent of changes induced by long-term exercise. Metabolite levels wer...
