Special Issue
INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO DIAGNOSING POST-CONCUSSION SYNDROME AND FUNCTIONAL NEUROLOGICAL DISORDERS
This special issue focuses on innovative approaches to diagnosing post-concussion syndrome (PCS) and functional neurological disorders (FNDs). PCS is a condition that can occur following a concussion, where individuals experience a range of symptoms that can persist for weeks, months or even years after the initial injury. FNDs are a group of conditions that are characterized by neurological symptoms but without a clear underlying neurological cause. This issue aims to explore new diagnostic tools and techniques that can aid in identifying and diagnosing PCS and FNDs, including studies on the use of biomarkers, imaging techniques, and other objective measures. It also explores new approaches to understanding the underlying mechanisms of these conditions, including the role of genetics, inflammation, and psychological factors.
