Sonolucent Burr Hole and Implantable Acoustic Lens Permitting and Enhancing Transcranial Ultrasound

Unmet Need: Brain imaging techniques are commonly used to visualize the distribution of tissues and fluids within the skull. These techniques are classically used to either (1) diagnose abnormalities in the structure of the brain (traumatic brain injury, stroke, tumors, abnormal fluid buildup, etc.) or (2) provide a real-time visual aid for surgeons...

MRI-compatible Cranial Implants with Imbedded Wireless Ultrasound

Unmet Need: Medical imaging data is crucial for the proper diagnosis and treatment of a number of maladies. For surgeries on the brain, ears, eyes, nose, or throat, biometric imaging data are heavily relied upon in order to diagnose and monitor intracranial pathologies. MRI and CT scans are only intermittently available, are expensive, and do not provide...

Novel Surgical Drill Attachment for Improved Cranial Implant Affixation

Unmet Need: Traditionally, re-insertion or replacement of bone flaps removed during neurosurgery involves fixing the bone flap to the skull surface via titanium plates and screws, which is commonly associated with craniofacial asymmetry, scalp pain, possible extrusion and other post-operative complications. Technology Overview: Johns Hopkins researchers...

Implantable Wireless Sonolucent ICP Monitor for long-term real-time Neuromonitoring

Unmet Need: Neuromonitoring and brain visualization play key roles for the diagnosis, monitoring, and surveillance of acute brain injury and other brain-related conditions. However, existing technology using computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), trans-cranioplasty ultrasound, and/or pre-existing cabled intracranial pressure (ICP)...
