Between 2016 and 2018, US government personnel stationed in Havana, Cuba, reported exposure to unusual auditory and sensory phenomena followed by neurological signs and symptoms characterized clinically as cognitive, vestibular, and oculomotor dysfunction with sleep impairment and headaches. This study characterizes magnetic resonance–based differences in brain tissue volume, microstructure, and functional connectivity in those personnel compared with demographically similar unexposed controls.
