Product Description:
86 short papers originating from the 13th International Symposium on  
Intracranial Pressure and Brain Monitoring held in July 2007 in San  
Francisco present experimental as well as clinical research data on  
invasive and non-invasive intracranial pressure and brain biochemistry  
monitoring. The papers have undergone a peer-reviewing and are organized
 in eight sections: brain injury: ICP management and cerebral  
physiology; hydrocephalus and cerebrospinal fluid dynamics; advanced  
neuromonitoring; biomedical informatics; imaging; ICP: brain compliance,
 biophysics, and biomechanics; stroke, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and  
intracerebral hematoma; and experimental studies and models. The papers
address the increasing use of decompressive craniectomy for the  
treatment of brain edema as well after brain injury and the rapidly  
expanding field of advanced neuromonitoring and neuroimaging.
