MRS did take the crown in this head-to-head comparison. For now, however, the recommended MRI protocol does not include MRS. I hope that the scientific community can continue to gather data to motivate its future use in concussion.

Hi Aurora - diagnosis now does include more biomarkers, compared to years past. Imaging has a central role, and other objective measures can also be taken into account. More info here: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40409315/
How diagnosis is actually done, however, is still clinic-specific.
