Prevalence of Neurological and Mental Health Illness in U.S. Naval Aviators: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Accelerative exposures in tactical naval aviation differ and are generally far lower than those seen in sports involving repetitive head impacts. Advances in medical imaging and neuro-biomarkers allow aeromedical researchers to examine this population for potential subclinical neurological changes.

Abstract

Accelerative exposures in tactical naval aviation differ and are generally far lower than those seen in sports involving repetitive head impacts. Advances in medical imaging and neuro-biomarkers allow aeromedical researchers to examine this population for potential subclinical neurological changes.
