2. BRAIN INJURIES
• The human brain is fragile. Scientists and doctors are just learning how fragile the brain truly is. Technologies
are being developed that show microscopic damage that was previously undiagnosable.
• Some brain injuries can lead to permanent impairment; other injuries can prove fatal. Any serious brain injury
can drastically change the life of the person experiencing it, as well as the lives of his or her family and
friends.
• The brain can sustain damage in a variety of ways. Often, head injuries occur because of the negligence of
others. The most common causes include car accidents, assaults, medical negligence during childbirth, and
falls caused by dangerous conditions.
3. SYMPTOMS OF BRAIN INJURY
A brain injury can reveal itself in a wide variety of ways, some of them obvious and some not so obvious.
Symptoms of brain injury can include:
Headaches characterized by pain or pressure
Dizziness or nausea
Internal bleeding (hemorrhaging), which can lead to a sensation of pain or pressure in the head, or which may be
detected only through a CT scan or other medical imaging
Problems with memory or speech
Loss of motor function and paralytic conditions such as paraplegia or quadriplegia
Changes in behavior, mood or personality, which can include depression, irritability, mood swings,
inattentiveness, loss of interest or change in affect (visible facial indicators of mood)
Vision problems or noticeable changes in the pupils or other parts of the eye

5. BRAIN ANATOMY
If you or a loved one has experienced a brain injury, it can be helpful to understand the basic anatomy of the
human brain, which controls countless aspects of our thinking, our feelings, our movements and our interactions
with others. The main parts of the brain are:
The cerebral cortex, the broad outermost area of the brain, is involved in higher functions like decision making.
It includes the occipital lobe, the parietal lobe, and the frontal and temporal lobes.
The cerebellum, which plays a role in certain body movements.
The brain stem, which helps control involuntary functions.
The basal ganglia, a cluster of nerve tissue at the brain's core that is believed to aid in the coordination between
different parts of the brain.
