State of the Tech – TBI Diagnosis, Monitoring & Assessment

The U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command’s (USAMRDC) Combat Casualty Care Research Program (CCCRP) Neurotrauma Portfolio and the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), with support of MTEC, will host a State of the Technology meeting focused on Non-invasive Neuroassessment tools.

The goal of this meeting is to understand the state of the technology to: a) better diagnose traumatic brain injury (TBI) at all levels of the continuum of care, b) understand how to monitor patients already diagnosed with TBI, and c) identify new potential products that could be developed into prototypes for the diagnosis, assessment, and monitoring of TBI.
