Injuries to the neck following whiplash trauma (whiplash injury) are one of the most common causes of neck pain and disability in the developed world. We are currently conducting a study which uses magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in combination with physical and psychological measures, to identify structural lesions of the neck following whiplash injury. The ability to identify and differentiate the relationship between structural lesions and physical and psychosocial measures in whiplash patients will potentially enable more specific and timely management.
