http://www.einstein.yu.edu – Former Army specialist Dan Hof, a veteran of the conflict in Iraq, sustained a concussion in 2005 while deployed and has been struggling with troubling symptoms of his injury ever since. Dan is one of the 20 participants in a study of mild traumatic brain injury in veterans led by Michael Lipton, M.D., Ph.D., at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. In cooperation with the Resurrecting Lives Foundation, Dr. Lipton is using advanced MRI techniques and cognitive tests to investigate the effect of repeated combat-related blast exposures on the brains of veterans with the goal of improving diagnostics and treatment.

After years of VA telling me all the symptomology is somatisation from PTSD, I got a SPECT scan by AMEN clinic and saw visually the areas of my brain that are still currently showing signs of damage. I wish I had gone there 15 years ago. They were very nice and I recommend them to all vets that have been in IEDs, head trauma, if you're looking for answers to your questions.
