Experts suggest that their findings could help differentiate between dementia and other neurological diseases that have similar symptoms.

A team of researchers have developed a new tool that benchmarks brain development and growth based on over 120,000 MRI scans.

Researchers found that more than half of symptomatic participants who reported head trauma showed signs of injury to the inferior vestibular nerve on imaging.
