Multi-modality neuro-monitoring: conventional clinical trial design.

abstract：:Computed tomography (CT) scan of the brain transitioned clinical neurology from the educated-guess world to the real computer-age world. One of the first CT scans-published by the British neuroradiologist James Ambrose-showed an intracranial hemorrhage and also suggested the use of iodine to demonstrate abnormal blood...
