Abstract
Monitoring intracranial pressure is a critical aspect of post operative care of patients suffering from Traumatic Brain Injury. We present an implantable and powerless opto-fluidic device for monitoring intracranial pressure (ICP). The device converts ICP changes to wavelength changes through the use of a tunable, liquid-filled microlens that focuses light to a multi-layered quantum dot array.
