A Multicenter Study of Noninvasive Wireless Assessment of Cerebrospinal Fluid Shunt Function in Hydrocephalus Patients.
Journal Article Neurosurgery · December 1, 2025 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Diagnosis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt failure is complex, relying on a combination of patient symptoms, history, and indirect tests, in part due to the inability to easily access information about shunt function. The objec ... Full text Link to item CiteLocal and global effects of inertial force components producing brain strain during head impacts.
Journal Article Comput Biol Med · November 2025 Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a brain dysfunction caused by an external mechanical force and is a leading cause of disability worldwide. In traumatic brain injury, the brain strain is driven by inertial force associated with the head acceleration. We ide ...
