Parker's project will assess the change in metabolic brain biomarkers through magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) following mild-traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in pediatrics. These will be compared to orthopaedic injury patients to see the difference in an injury sustained to the head and other types of injury. This study utilizes data and clinical outcomes from the Advancing Concussion Assessment in Pediatrics (A-CAP) study.
