Core Tip |
Transcendence of an academic publication over disciplinary boundaries faces the challenge of application by a group that inherently lacks in-depth knowledge on the scientific method, the practice of evidence-based medicine, or the peer-reviewed publication process. A modern-day example of this is the ongoing conflict between diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) publications and legal standards for admissibility of evidence in personal injury litigation cases in the United States. We have amalgamated the peer-reviewed research on DTI in mild traumatic brain injury with the court’s rationale underlying decisions to admit or exclude evidence of DTI abnormalities to support claims of brain injury. |
