What is it indicated for?

The NeuroSensor™ System is intended for use by a qualified neurosurgeon in monitoring cerebral blood flow in patients at risk of cerebral ischemia, and for the direct monitoring of intracranial pressure in both sub-dural and intraparenchymal applications.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
