Diagnostic Tests for TBI Long Term

  • 1.  Diagnostic Tests for TBI Long Term

    Posted 01-02-2013 17:41
    Does anyone know of a reference for the recommended frequency (annually, once every 2 years, etc.) for an MRI and/or a CT of the brain for a person with a long term TBI? Also, does anyone know of a reference for the recommended frequency for blood tests or lab work (i.e. CBC, Liver Function, Renal Function, Complete Metabolic Panel, etc.) for a person with a long term TBI?  Thank you for your assistance.
