How can neuropsychological testing help with a mild TBI?
Neuropsychological testing is a valid and respected discipline that has proved extremely helpful for people with mild head injuries. When a TBI goes undiagnosed a person often develops secondary problems with depression because neither they nor those around them understand that they have suffered a brain injury. Enhanced ability to diagnose head injuries holds the promise that instead of sinking into chronic depression, a person can learn positive means of dealing with their injury.
