Advanced neuroimaging contributes to a greater understanding of brain pathology
following a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and has the ability to guide
neurorehabilitation decisions. When integrated with the school-based
psychoeducational assessment of a child with a TBI, neuroimaging can provide a
different perspective when interpreting educational and behavioral variables
relevant to school-based neurorehabilitation. School psychologists conducting
traditional psychoeducational assessments of children with TBI seldom obtain and
integrate neuroimaging, despite its availability. This article presents
contextual information on the medical assessment of TBI, major types of
neuroimaging, and networks of the brain. A case study illustrates the value of incorporating neuroimaging into the standard school-based psychoeducational evaluations of children with traumatic brain injury.
