What is the difference between concussion and contusion? How are they diagnosed? They are essentially the same. Contusion is when the injury causes localized bruising of the brain tissue. Concussion is the type of injury that affects brain function. CT scan and MRI are the methods of choice to determine the difference(s) between the two. They are both easily diagnosed by gross visual inspections. Concussion causes edema around the eye sockets and within the cranial cavity.

Why is LSD known as a powerful hallucinogenic drug? LSD destroys serotonin-secreting neurons. It can inhibit the production of serotonin. It binds to serotonin receptors on the post-synaptic membrane, preventing serotonin from binding. It activates serotonin receptors in the brain stem, hypothalamus, and limbic system, increasing the concentration of serotonin.

It activates serotonin receptors in the brain stem, hypothalamus, and limbic system, increasing the concentration of serotonin.
