Head acceleration measurement sensors are now widely deployed in the field to monitor
head kinematic exposure in contact sports. The wealth of impact kinematics data provides …

To further the understanding of long-term sequelae as a result of repetitive head impacts in
sports, in vivo head impact exposure data are critical to expand on existing evidence from …

Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a neurodegenerative tauopathy associated with
repetitive head impacts (RHI), but the components of RHI exposure underlying this …

Background The number and magnitude of head impacts have been assessed in-vivo using
inertial sensors to characterise the exposure in various sports and to help understand their …

Wearable sensors that accurately record head impacts experienced by athletes during play
can enable a wide range of potential applications including equipment improvements …

Athletes participating in contact sports are exposed to repetitive subconcussive head
impacts that may have long-term neurological consequences. To better understand these …

Understanding characteristics of head acceleration events (HAEs) in youth football is vital in
developing strategies to improve athlete safety. This study aimed to characterize HAEs in …

Objective: Youth athletes are believed to be more susceptible to white matter (WM)
