Fluid outflow in a large-animal model of posttraumatic syringomyelia.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:We report our initial clinical experience with a new method for intraoperative blood flow assessment. The purposes of the study were to assess the use of indocyanine green (ICG) video angiography in neurovascular cases, to assess the handling and image quality, to compare the findings with postoperative angio...
