Abstract
Eleven patients with brain hematoma, 15 patients with brain edema and a group of 9 healthy subjects were included in this study. Statistically significant differences between parameters obtained in healthy subjects and patients with brain hematoma and brain edema were observed. The best optical parameter to differentiate patients and control group was variance of the DTOFs or DTAs. Results of the study suggest that time-resolved optical monitoring of inflow of the ICG seems to be a promising tool for detecting cerebral perfusion insufficiencies in critically ill patients.
