The effects of blast on biological tissue are documented for some organ systems such as the lung. In the central nervous system (CNS) the mechanism of CNS injury following blast wave is unclear. For example is there a selective effect of blast on varying brain region or white matter bundles. The effect of blast on traumatic brain injury (TBI) has come into particular focus with the Global War on Terror and Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom where TBI has become known as the signature injury of these conflicts. The reason for the prominence of TBI in these particular conflicts as opposed to others is unclear but may result from the increased survivability of blast due to improvements in body armor. In the current series of articles in the Journal some developments of current research concepts in relation to military traumatic brain injury (TBI) are highlighted together with many remaining unsolved questions.
爆炸对生物组织的影响在某些器官系统（如肺部）有相关记录。在中枢神经系统（CNS）中，爆炸波引起的 CNS 损伤的机制尚不清楚。例如，爆炸是否对不同的脑区或白质束有选择性影响。爆炸对创伤性脑损伤（TBI）的影响特别受到关注，因为全球反恐战争、伊拉克自由行动和持久自由行动，TBI 已成为这些冲突的标志性损伤。与其他冲突相比，TBI 在这些特定冲突中突出的原因尚不清楚，但可能是由于防弹衣的改进提高了爆炸的存活率。在本期《期刊》中的一系列文章中，重点介绍了与军事创伤性脑损伤（TBI）相关的当前研究概念的一些发展，同时还存在许多未解决的问题。
