Electromagnetic field focusing (EFF) probe--a new neurosurgical tool.

abstract：:Ventricular shunting has dramatically improved the care of children with hydrocephalus. Yet shunt malfunctions are extremely common and cause significant morbidity. To document shunt problems in children with a neural tube defect and hydrocephalus, 67 children born since 1973 were studied via life-table analysis. 28% ...
