2Axonal Injury
In focal and multifocal axonal injury the damaged axons are seen in one or few locations in the supratentorial parts of the brain, mainly in the corpus callosum and internal capsule, but not in the infratentorial brain regions.
Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) is usually associated with rapid angular (rotational) acceleration and deceleration of the brain.

ConclusionDiffuse axonal injury is a significant traumatic brain injury which involves widespread damage to axons in supra- and infratentorial parts of the brain and is graded 1-3, according to the severtiry of pathology and the likelihood of survival.It should be differentiated from focal or multi-focal axonal injury.
