A new model to produce sagittal plane rotational induced diffuse axonal injuries
A new in vivo animal model that produces diffuse brain injuries (DBI) in sagittal plane rearward rotational acceleration has been developed. In this model, the skull of an anesthetized adult rat is tightly secured to a rotating bar. During trauma, the bar is impacted by a striker that causes the bar...
