No instructions available DAI and TAI lesions may be hemorrhagic and are thus often identified with GRE/SW-imaging. Newer MR studies, such as diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), are able to demonstrate white matter fiber tract injury even when the standard MRI is negative. Both DAI and TAI injuries may also be found along with a wide variety other traumatic entities such as SDH, EDH, and contusions, because of the large heterogeneous forces involved in causing these lesions.
