This study highlights the fact that there are differences in diffusion microstructure measures that are present not only between football players with sports-related injuries and controls, but that there are also measurable differences between football players with repetitive head impacts and controls. This work reinforces previous work showing that the corpus callosum is specifically implicated in sports-related concussion and also suggests this to be true for repetitive head impacts.
