Join Us on September 25th
10:00am - 3:00pm
Traumatic Brain Injury: Advances in Diagnosis, Treatment, and Litigation
Interdisciplinary Panel on TBI Case Preparation and Recovery
Topics To Be Covered
🧠 1. New Technology Tools in Diagnosing Traumatic Brain Injuries
Presented by: Dr. Gomez (Neurologist / Neurodiagnostics Specialist)
And Dr. Peter Greenwood MD ( Pathologist)
Key Topics:
• Advanced Imaging:
• Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) for white matter damage
• Susceptibility Weighted Imaging (SWI) for microbleeds
• Functional MRI (fMRI) to map brain function disruptions
• Electrophysiology:
• Quantitative EEG (qEEG) for brainwave pattern analysis
• Evoked Potentials (EPs) to measure brain responses
• Biomarker Blood Tests:
• GFAP & UCH-L1 for rapid concussion screening
• Eye-Tracking & Pupillometry:
• Objective indicators of brainstem/cognitive dysfunction
• AI Integration:
• Machine learning applied to imaging and diagnostics
⸻
🧪 2. Neuropsychology & Its Importance in TBI Cases
Presented by: Dr. David Tate (Neuropsychologist)
Key Topics:
• Comprehensive Neuropsych Evaluations:
• Assessing memory, attention, processing speed, executive function
• Establishing Functional Impact:
• Comparing pre-injury and post-injury performance
• Credibility in Court:
• Objective cognitive tests support subjective symptoms
• Differentiating Diagnoses:
• PTSD vs. TBI vs. malingering — accurate assessment critical
• Guiding Treatment and Rehabilitation:
• How test results shape recovery plans and goals
⸻
🧬 3. Current Therapies for TBI Recovery
Presented by: ZEO Scientific (Clinical Neuroscientist / Rehab Specialist)
Key Topics:
• Neuroplasticity-Driven Treatments:
• Cognitive Rehabilitation Therapy (CRT)
• Virtual reality and digital cognitive tools
• Neurostimulation Therapies:
• Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)
• Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)
• Integrative Therapies Exosomes Inhalation
• Physical therapy, mindfulness, biofeedback
• Remote Monitoring Tools:
• Apps and wearables to track symptoms & progress
⸻
⚖️ 4. Legal Preparation of a TBI Case for Trial
Presented by: Brett Turnbull, Esq. (Trial Attorney – Catastrophic Injury)
Key Topics:
• Proving the “Invisible Injury”:
• Using neuroimaging, neuropsych, and blood tests as evidence
• Effective Expert Witness Strategy:
• Coordinating neurologists, psychologists, and rehab experts
• Visual Storytelling for the Jury:
• Brain scans, animations, day-in-the-life videos
• Establishing Damages:
• Life-care plans, vocational losses, non-economic harm
• Defense Tactics & Rebuttal Strategies:
• Combating claims of exaggeration or malingering
• Jury Communication:
• Translating complex science into compelling narratives
⸻
💬 Panel Q&A / Case Study Discussion
• Cross-disciplinary insights on a sample TBI case
• Audience questions and practical guidance
