Abstract:
Over the past decade, concern for negative outcomes associated with concussive brain trauma has grown immensely. These neuropathologic changes, termed chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), have been linked to patients who exhibit neuropsychiatric symptoms and have experienced repetitive brain trauma. Recent publicity has brought about renewed interest in this progressive neurodegenerative disorder. This article will share the advances that have been made with CTE.
