Our neurotrauma surgeons use a variety of state-of-the-art brain monitoring tools and surgical treatments.

大脑监测

Advanced brain monitoring tools allow our specialists to assess various types of brain activity. 我们使用的测试可能包括:

:脑微量透析可把时程延长 Uses a thin, hollow tube (catheter) connected to the brain to evaluate certain brain chemicals

脑电图(EEG): Measures brainwave activity, including continuous EEG monitoring pioneered at 皇冠hga025大学洛杉矶分校健康

诱发电位: Measures the brain’s electrical activity in response to specific stimuli, 比如灯光, 声音或感觉

颅内压监测: Measures the pressure inside the skull to determine if high or low cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is causing neurological symptoms

经颅多普勒超声: 用声波来评估血液在大脑中的流动
