VOLUMESERIES: a software tool for target volume follow-up studies with computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Technical note.

abstract：:Magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy may provide important clinical information in the acute stages of brain injury. For this to occur it must be ensured that intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring devices are safe to bring into the MR imaging suite. The authors tested a Codman MicroSensor ICP Transducer (Codma...
