The different forces to which the brain is subjected during an injury play a large role in the type of injury that occurs. Consider the differences between the type and extent of injuries that result from linear forces such as in a whiplash injury compared with those from the rotational forces that occur in a high-speed vehicle accident.
- What type(s) of injury would you expect in each case?
- What areas of the brain are most likely to be affected and what impact does this have on subsequent function?
- Which type of injury is more severe and why?
