AIM To explore the causes of scalp wound infection, pathogen distribution, characteristics of antimicrobial susceptibility and therapeutic measures following craniocerebral trauma caused by the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake. MATERIAL and METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the microbiology records of patients admitted with craniocerebral trauma to the Department of Neurosurgery, We...

We investigate prerequisites for developing a continuous wave NIRS bedside brain perfusion monitor. Based on the separation of superficial and cortical layers using 3D HR-DOT we investigate the power and distribution of low frequency oscillations in the brain and scalp. © 2012 Optical Society of America OCIS: (170.6960) Tomography; (170.2655) Functional monitoring and imaging

BACKGROUND The electroencephalography (EEG) is an attractive and a simple technique to measure the brain activity. It is attractive due its excellent temporal resolution and simple due to its non-invasiveness and sensor design. However, the spatial resolution of EEG is reduced due to the low conducting skull. In this paper, we compute the potential distribution over the closed surface covering ...

The discrepancy between potential distributions recorded on the scalp and on the cerebral cortex~ as a result of the electric field propagation through the surrounding shells, requires development of techniques which enable us to compute one distribution as a function of the other. The method presented is based on a physical model consistent with neurophysiological patterns~ and in which the so...

BACKGROUND In scalp allotransplantation, the scalp from a brain-dead donor, including hair, is transferred to a recipient with scalp defects. Opinions differ on the appropriateness of scalp allotransplantation. In order to maintain graft function and cosmetic outcomes, scalp transplantation recipients would need to receive lifelong immunosuppression treatments. The risks of this immunosuppressi...
