Concussion causes transient dysfunction in cortical inhibitory networks but not the corpus callosum

The corpus callosum (CC) is thought to be especially vulnerable in traumatic brain injury. Bimanual cost (a slowing of reaction time with bimanual compared to unimanual responses) is a sensitive indicator of CC function. To determine whether CC dysfunction is a significant feature of mild traumatic...
