Brain injury detection on the hill?
Abstract:
A handheld tool being developed to catch head injuries in the field could be a boon for skiers and snowboarders. Researchers from a range of disciplines working together at the Greensboro Joint School of Nanoscience and Nanoengineering in North Carolina are designing a portable device that can test for mild traumatic brain injury -- which can include a concussion -- on the spot, anywhere from a ski slope to the scene of a car accident.
