In order to evaluate the possibility of early detection of minimal cerebral damages in the professional boxers, ten young pugilists were submitted to complete neurological examination, EEG recording and CT-scan. Neuroradiological data, electrical patterns and neurological aspects were examined in connection with sporting career of each boxer. Neurological examination was normal in all cases. EEG patterns were considered normal in 3 cases, borderline in 4 cases and pathological in 3 cases. CT-scan was considered normal in 4 cases, borderline in 4 and pathological (showing signs of cerebral atrophy) in 2 cases. A good correlation was found between CT-scan pictures, EEG patterns and sporting career of the boxers: the pugilistis who suffered knockouts had pathological and/or borderline CT-scan and EEGs, while the pugilists who did not experience knockouts during their career showed a normal CT-scan and EEG, independently of the years of activity and number of matches.
为了评估在职业拳击手中早期发现轻微脑损伤的可能性，对10名年轻拳击手进行了全面的神经学检查、脑电图记录和CT扫描。结合每位拳击手的运动生涯，对神经放射学数据、电活动模式和神经学方面进行了检查。所有病例的神经学检查均正常。脑电图模式3例被认为正常，4例为临界状态，3例为病理性。CT扫描4例被认为正常，4例为临界状态，2例为病理性（显示脑萎缩迹象）。在CT扫描图像、脑电图模式和拳击手的运动生涯之间发现了良好的相关性：遭受击倒的拳击手CT扫描和脑电图为病理性和/或临界状态，而在其职业生涯中未经历过击倒的拳击手CT扫描和脑电图正常，与活动年限和比赛次数无关。
