Difference between Amnesia and Traumatic brain injury

Amnesia vs. Traumatic brain injury

Amnesia is a deficit in memory caused by brain damage, disease, or psychological trauma. Traumatic brain injury (TBI), also known as intracranial injury, occurs when an external force injures the brain.

Similarities between Amnesia and Traumatic brain injury

Amnesia and Traumatic brain injury have 12 things in common (in Unionpedia): Aphasia, Benzodiazepine, Concussion, Epileptic seizure, Head injury, Hypoxia (medical), Ischemia, Magnetic resonance imaging, Neurology, Post-traumatic amnesia, Sedative, Temporal lobe.

Aphasia

Aphasia is an inability to comprehend and formulate language because of damage to specific brain regions.

Benzodiazepine

Benzodiazepines (BZD, BZs), sometimes called "benzos", are a class of psychoactive drugs whose core chemical structure is the fusion of a benzene ring and a diazepine ring.

Hypoxia (medical)

Hypoxia is a condition in which the body or a region of the body is deprived of adequate oxygen supply at the tissue level.

Ischemia

Ischemia or ischaemia is a restriction in blood supply to tissues, causing a shortage of oxygen that is needed for cellular metabolism (to keep tissue alive).

Magnetic resonance imaging

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to form pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes of the body in both health and disease.

Neurology

Neurology (from νεῦρον (neûron), "string, nerve" and the suffix -logia, "study of") is a branch of medicine dealing with disorders of the nervous system.

Post-traumatic amnesia

Post-traumatic amnesia (PTA) is a state of confusion that occurs immediately following a traumatic brain injury (TBI) in which the injured person is disoriented and unable to remember events that occur after the injury.
