From head micro-motions towards CSF dynamics and non-invasive intracranial pressure monitoring

Abstract Continuous monitoring of the intracranial pressure (ICP) is essential in neurocritical care. There are a variety of ICP monitoring systems currently available, with the intraventricular fluid filled catheter transducer currently representing the “gold standard”. As the placement of catheter...
