Bedside transcranial sonography monitoring in a patient with hydrocephalus post subarachnoid hemorrhage

摘要

BackgroundDevelopment of hydrocephalus can occur after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Typically, it is diagnosed with computed tomography, CT, scan. However, transcranial sonography (TCS) can be used particularly in patients with craniotomy which removes the acoustic interference of the skull and allows a closer up visualization of brain structures through the skin.
