Fractional anisotropy (FA) on diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is now identified as radiologic prognosticator for TBI (Traumatic brain injury). Low FA has been shown to be associated with worse outcomes after concussion, and higher the FA, the greater the likelihood of having fewer postconcussion symptoms and a better health-related quality of life a year after the injury,
