Plaintiff's Opposition to Defendant's Motion to Preclude Evidence, Testimony, Reports, and/or References to QEEG Testing
On March 21, 2006, the plaintiff's work truck was rear ended by a tractor trailer weighing approximately 100,000 pounds that was travelling approximately 25-30 mph. The plaintiff's car was pushed into the vehicle in front of him and all told there was a five car pileup.The plaintiff had an amnesic gap and complained of head pain within minutes of the crash. For hours, the plaintiff was acting dazed and confused as he had problems remembering and would repeat himself a lot. He initially went to the emergency room with his wife at Beth Israel but did not stay because his wife said he would not wait and was irrational at the Hospital. He did go to his primary care physician that day.
By that night, the plaintiff was dizzy and had worsening headaches. He developed problems concentrating and other signs of post concussive syndrome shortly after the crash. Both his primary care physician and his treating physiatrist at the Spaulding Rehabilitation Traumatic Brain Injury Clinic have diagnosed the plaintiff with post concussive syndrome.
In addition to QEEG, the plaintiff underwent another objective test to measure the integrity of the brain’s white matter. The DTI showed that in certain areas of the brain, the plaintiff's white matter is also damaged. Not coincidentally, the damage to the white matter as shown on DTI correlates to the abnormal findings on QEEG.

Plaintiff's Opposition to Defendants' Motion to Preclude Evidence Relating to Diffusion Tensor Imaging ("DTI")
On March 21, 2006, the plaintiff's van was rear-ended by a tractor-trailer weighing approximately 100,000 pounds and travelling approximately 25-30 mph. This impact caused a chain-reaction, five-car pile-up. The plaintiff had an amnesic gap and complained of head pain within minutes of the crash. For hours, the plaintiff was acting dazed and confused, had problems remembering the accident and would repeat himself. He initially went to the emergency room at Beth Israel Hospital with his wife, but was acting irrational and would not wait for medical attention. He left the hospital and went to see his primary care physician in Chelsea.
By that night, the plaintiff was dizzy and had worsening headaches. He developed problems concentrating and other signs of post-concussive syndrome shortly after the crash. Both his primary care physician and his treating physiatrist at the Spaulding Rehabilitation Traumatic Brain Injury Clinic have diagnosed the plaintiff with post-concussive syndrome, otherwise called Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (“mTBI”).
