A schematic shows axonal shearing in the brain caused by rotational acceleration, characteristic of diffuse axonal injury (DAI). A neuron (cell) with a soma and dendritic arbor is depicted within cerebral white matter tissue of the central nervous system, with its axon stretched and torn by opposing forces. In neuroanatomy and neuropathology, axons (subcellular projections) propagate action potentials; shearing disrupts axoplasmic transport and impulse conduction, impairing network connectivity. Species is unspecified and no human subject details are shown.
