A device to assess intracranial pressure (icp) noninvasively

Abstract

The disclosure provides systems, methods and materials useful for the noninvasive estimation of intracranial pressure. Embodiments of the invention include systems for estimating intracranial pressure in a subject which comprise a headset adapted to rest on the head and/or face of the subject and at least one sensing probe. In such systems, the sensing probe is coupled to the headset in an orientation such that the sensing probe can sense phenomena such as optic nerve diameter and/or optic nerve sheath diameter. In illustrative systems, the sensing probe is adapted to capture sensed parameters and the system then correlates one or more sensed parameters with intracranial pressure so as to estimate intracranial pressure in the subject noninvasively.
