In current usage ‘concussion’ describes a clinical presentation, but does not identify the underlying pathological process and therefore cannot be considered a true diagnosis. However, mounting evidence indicates diffuse axonal injury as a likely pathological substrate for concussion, thereby providing a framework to develop true diagnostic criteria.
在当前的使用中,“脑震荡”描述的是一种临床表现,但它不能确定潜在的病理过程,因此不能被视为真正的诊断。然而,越来越多的证据表明弥漫性轴索损伤可能是脑震荡的病理基础,从而为制定真正的诊断标准提供了一个框架。
