Repetitive blast exposure increases BBB permeability to radiolabeled albumin. A significant increase (**p ≤ 0.01) in brain/serum (uμl/g) ratios of 99mTc-albumin was observed in whole brain at 72 h after repetitive mTBI (3X blast; n = 12) compared to 1X blast (n = 12), and sham control mice (n = 12). One-way ANOVA post-hoc Newman-Keuls. Values represent means ± SEM and are expressed as microliters per gram of brain tissue. Brain/serum ratios were calculated by dividing the cpm per brain by the cpm per microliter in the corresponding serum and then by the weight of the brain.
