to assess if quantitative diffusion MRI analysis would improve prognostication of individual patients with severe traumatic brain injury. we analyzed images of 30 healthy controls to extract normal Fractional Anisotropy (FA) ranges along 18 white-matter tracts. Then, we analyzed images of 33 patients, compared their FA values with normal ranges extracted from controls, and computed severity of injury to white-matter tracts. We also asked two neuroradiologists to rate severity of injury to different brain regions on FLAIR and SWI images. Finally, we built three models: 1) fed with neuroradiologists’ ratings; 2) fed with white-matter injury measures; and 3) fed with both input types. the three models respectively predicted survival at 1 year with accuracies of 70%, 73%, and 88%. The accuracy with both input types was significantly better (P<0.05). quantifying severity of injury to white-matter tracts complements qualitative imaging findings and improves outcome prediction in severe traumatic brain injury.
