A Way to Help Veterans

A big problem for a lot of veterans is that when they suffer from PTSD and Mild Traumatic Brain Injury. The problem of a lack of clear definition can hinder a veteran’s ability to get the proper care. With hybrid PET/CT scanning there seems to be a lesser degree of difficulty.

When one considers the difference between PTSD and Mild Traumatic Brain Injury, it should not be so hard to differentiate between the two, but the behaviors are so similar that using imaging as an eventual differentiation tool is a great way to go.

While PTSD is addressed through therapy, there could possibly be a correlation between PTSD and Mild Traumatic Brain Injury. These studies have a ways to go, but it will be interesting the developments created by diagnostic imaging.
