The role of neuroimaging in the diagnosis and management of mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) is evolving. In general, the structural imaging techniques play a role in acute diagnosis and management, while the functional imaging techniques show promise for clarification of pathophysiology, symptom genesis, and mechanisms of recovery. ⋯ It is, therefore, important to be aware of the advantages and limitations of the various available imaging modalities. This paper selectively reviews the pertinent literature on the structural and functional imaging in mild TBI.
