Assessment and Diagnosis
Diagnosing and treating brain injuries can be difficult as sometimes the symptoms and deficits are not immediately clear. In others, though, the cause of the problem is obvious, such as when a person develops cognitive issues following an accident or stroke. In either case, competent and specialized treatment team gives the best potential for positive gains and a good outcome.
A brain injury physician may recommend cognitive testing, brain imaging scans, or even bloodwork in their search for a thorough diagnosis. Others on the clinical treatment team may carry out ongoing evaluations, such as neurocognitive tests.
Progress may be measured by both the clinical team or the individual based on how well they are able to function within their community. Factors might include their ability to return to work, hobbies as well as their ability to communicate and operate independently.
