This graphic shows a patient’s brain before HBOT (first/top row of scans), Post HBOT (second row of scans) and then shows the % change of oxygen flow to the brain (third/bottom row of scans).
The third/bottom image provides an excellent view of increased oxygen flow to the brain after HBOT therapy as represented by the yellow, red and white areas (please refer to the key directly to the left of the image).
If Oxygen flow promotes healing by reducing inflammation, this image shows how HBOT can be an effective treatment for traumatic brain injury and post-concussive syndrome.
