Abbott Laboratories Research Reports
On August 18, 2014, Abbott Laboratories (Abbott) and the United States Department of Defense announced a collaboration to develop portable blood tests that will help physicians accurately diagnose the potential concussions, also called mild traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), and prevent further injury.

"Medical advances are needed to help more quickly assess concussions. The collaboration between Abbott and the Department of Defense is an important step in ensuring that military service members, and ultimately civilians, receive proper evaluation," said Beth McQuiston, M.D., a Board Certified Neurologist and Medical Director, Diagnostics, Abbott. "These new tests could open the door to many possibilities for evaluating concussions and helping clinicians optimize care and outcomes."
