Effects of low-level blast exposure on the nervous system: Is there really a controversy?
Frontiers in Neurology, 2014 High-pressure blast waves can cause extensive CNS injury in humans. However, in combat settings such as Iraq and Afghanistan, lower level exposures associated with mild TBI (mTBI) or subclinical exposure have been much more common. Yet controversy exists
