Understanding Brain Injuries

Brain injuries can result from external trauma or internal medical events. They vary in severity but often affect cognition, behavior, mobility, and overall well-being.

Two Primary Types:

  • Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI): Caused by impact, falls, accidents, or sports injuries
  • Non-Traumatic Brain Injury: Resulting from stroke, tumors, aneurysms, or infections

At NYSI Queens, we evaluate and treat each condition with a personalized, evidence-based approach.
