There was no excessive bleeding or loss of consciousness at the time of your injury. You were evaluated and released. Now, you may be experiencing subtle changes such as confusion, loss of balance, difficulty concentrating or other symptoms and you wonder if they are related to the stress of your accident or to a possible brain injury.

If you, or a loved one, have been hurt in an accident, then it is important to know that a brain injury may become apparent after the day of the accident and that you may need to see your doctor for tests. It is also important to know how to contact a Georgia brain injury lawyer if the tests show that a brain injury has occurred.

Possible Brain Injury Tests
 
If you have suffered a head injury and then begin to exhibit symptoms of a brain injury, a doctor may suggest one or more of the following tests:

• In-office neurological exam
• MRI
• CAT Scan
• EEG
• Pet Scan

Other more specific tests may also be warranted. In order to treat a brain injury, your doctor must first conduct the tests to determine what part of the brain is injured and how best to help you.
