A non-invasive way to triage & monitor intracranial pressure (ICP) far earlier than currently possible in the care journey

IHdetect

THE CRANIOSENSE SOLUTION

IHdetect measures intracranial pressure in seconds.

CranioSense is developing IHdetect, a portable system designed to help clinicians triage and monitor elevated ICP earlier in the care journey, without the need to drill a hole in the skull or insert a sensor into the brain.

IHdetect measures intracranial pressure (ICP) with an easy-to-use system that only requires a patch on the forehead, two clip-on sensors, and a handheld device the size of an iPad.

“Non-invasive ICP is the holy grail of neurosurgery.”
