Difference between Axon and Traumatic brain injury

Axon vs. Traumatic brain injury

An axon (from Greek ἄξων áxōn, axis) or nerve fiber, is a long, slender projection of a nerve cell, or neuron, that typically conducts electrical impulses known as action potentials, away from the nerve cell body. Traumatic brain injury (TBI), also known as intracranial injury, occurs when an external force injures the brain.

Similarities between Axon and Traumatic brain injury

Axon and Traumatic brain injury have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Central nervous system, Cerebral hemisphere, Concussion, Diffuse axonal injury, Neuron, Neurotransmitter, Persistent vegetative state, White matter.

Central nervous system

The central nervous system (CNS) is the part of the nervous system consisting of the brain and spinal cord.

Diffuse axonal injury

Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) is a brain injury in which extensive lesions in white matter tracts occur over a widespread area.

Neuron

A neuron, also known as a neurone (British spelling) and nerve cell, is an electrically excitable cell that receives, processes, and transmits information through electrical and chemical signals.

Persistent vegetative state

A persistent vegetative state (PVS) is a disorder of consciousness in which patients with severe brain damage are in a state of partial arousal rather than true awareness.

White matter

White matter refers to areas of the central nervous system (CNS) that are mainly made up of myelinated axons, also called tracts.
