title: Toward better concussion management.
abstract: For assessing brain function in the conscious athlete, neuropsychological testing, the subject of ongoing clinical research, promises to be a quantum leap ahead of traditional neurologic assessments (see the news brief "Baseline Neurologic Testing Grows"). For the past 50 years, we've been forced to use not-so-subtle tests like subtracting serial sevens, which many athletes-and doctors-can't do even in their normal mental state.
