Diffuse Axonal Injury (DAI) Attorneys Center
Diffuse Axonal Injury is a brain injury associated most closely with the rotation and disruption of your brain within the cranium. This can cut away, shear or sever the brain axons, which are connecting nerve fibers. Damage such as this is typically difficult to analyze and accompanied by microscopic tears that are difficult to locate at all. If your case is diagnosed as a "mild brain injury" you may notice that the injuries heal over time. But often, a DAI can cause permanent disabilities from loss of consciousness to lifetime coma, and eventual wrongful death.Currently, medical science has not discovered a methodology to treat diffuse axonal injuries. But medical experts have discovered in some studies that the damage to axons occur in the first 12 to 24 hours after the head impact, or other head type injury. Many are confident that modern advances in science will be able to treat and/or slow down or stop the injury from progressing with medications and other therapy and/or surgery.
