‘Choroid Plexus Volume Only Increases Early after Traumatic Brain Injury’

“Traumatic brain injury (TBI) affects nearly 2.5 million people each year and results in a cascade of neurometabolic effects, including prolonged inflammatory processes. Choroid plexus (ChP) swelling has been postulated to occur following TBI due to neuroinflammation. However, it is unknown if the ChP swells as a consequence of the post-TBI neuroinflammatory cascade, and it is unknown if swelling could be detectable via human volumetric imaging. Therefore, this study aims to test for the effect of TBI on ChP volume using a case–control study design.”
