Possible Causes

Traumatic Brain Injury

Abstract In this study, we report on a patient who developed apathy resulting from injury to the prefrontocaudate tract following mild traumatic brain injury (TBI), which was observed on diffusion tensor tractography (DTT). A 46-year-old female patient was involved in a bus accident. Her history included[…] [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
