Prognostic Significance of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Patients with Severe Nonpenetrating Traumatic Brain Injury Requiring Decompressive Craniectomy

The prognostic significance of DAI on MRI may, in part, be captured by the IMPACT prognostic model. More research is needed before MRI should be routinely used to prognosticate the outcomes in patients with TBI requiring decompressive craniectomy.
