the authors also highlight the difficulty with mixed pattern of injuries (which is a rather common finding). In such cases, it is useful at times to consider the predominant pattern in terms of predicting outcomes. Finally, there is also a need to develop standardized and optimized conventional MRI protocols to enable more effective cross-centre clinical research as well as clinical care. Functional MRI to determine areas of cognitive and executive function in the brain, or diffusion tractography to map out white matter tracts have shown promise in the research realm, but have not translated to routine clinical practice yet, and should therefore be used as complementary imaging techniques where feasible.

作者还强调了混合伤害模式的困难（这是一个相当普遍的发现）。在这种情况下，有时在预测结果方面考虑主要模式是有用的。最后，还需要开发标准化和优化的常规 MRI 协议，以实现更有效的跨中心临床研究和临床护理。用于确定大脑认知和执行功能区域的功能性 MRI，或用于绘制白质束的弥散纤维束成像在研究领域显示出前景，但尚未转化为常规临床实践，因此应用作补充成像技术在可行的情况下。
