Scotland fly-half Finn Russell will be monitored this week after suffering a concussion early on during Sunday's win over France.
The Scots will finish their Six Nations campaign against Ireland on Saturday but Russell is now subject to the compulsory graduated return-to-play protocol and is to be assessed on a daily basis.
Peter Horne came on to replace Russell at Murrayfield on Sunday and the Scots went on to prevail 29-18, their second win in a row following the defeat of Italy.
Second rower Jonny Gray suffered a pectoral strain during the victory and will have a scan at Spire Murrayfield Hospital.
The Scotland medical team report that several other unnamed players need "ongoing assessment and treatment to ensure they are fit for the trip to face Ireland in Dublin".
