In recent years, Ukraine has been in a state of protracted military and socio-political crisis, accompanied by large-scale armed conflicts. Experiencing life-threatening events triggers a wide range of negative medical, psychological, and socio-psychological consequences. A significant proportion of military personnel who have participated in active combat operations have a history of traumatic brain injury and, accordingly, morphological changes in brain tissue, which complicates the course of mental pathology and increases the risk of developing neu- ropsychological disorders. The aim of the study was to analyze morphological and functional changes in the brain in patients with mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI) of explosive origin and to determine their connection with the development of affective disorders. The study involved 96 combatants who had suffered combat traumatic brain injury of explosive origin. Post-traumatic morphological and functional changes in the brain are important predictors of the development of psychoemotional disorders in patients with combat traumatic brain injury of mine-explosive origin. Timely detection of combat-related traumatic brain injuries allows for the prediction and reduction of risks of mental complications, and subsequently the development of individualized rehabilitation programs.
