Invasive Brain-Computer Interfaces: A Critical Assessment of Current Developments and Future Prospects

Invasive Brain-Computer Interfaces: A Critical Assessment of Current Developments and Future Prospects

Invasive brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) have recently attracted significant attention due to their potential to revolutionize the interaction between humans and machines. By directly interfacing with the brain, these devices offer profound implications for medical therapies and augmentative technologies. This viewpoint discusses the latest advancements, evaluates the benefits against the potential risks, and considers the ethical and regulatory landscapes shaping the future of invasive BCIs.

The Association Between the Use of Low-Slice Computed Tomography Machines and Downstream Care: Comparative Study of 16-Slice and 64-Slice Computed Tomography Angiography

The Association Between the Use of Low-Slice Computed Tomography Machines and Downstream Care: Comparative Study of 16-Slice and 64-Slice Computed Tomography Angiography

If the patients who were referred for 16-slice CT were not believed a priori to be more difficult to conclusively diagnose than those referred to 64-slice CT, the findings suggest that the use of 64-slice CT machines may improve the quality of care by reducing the need for downstream invasive testing. Although they are not universally available, 64-slice CT machines are widely distributed and may be the best choice for patients requiring a CT scan.

Near-Infrared Cerebrovascular Reactivity for Monitoring Cerebral Autoregulation and Predicting Outcomes in Moderate to Severe Traumatic Brain Injury: Proposal for a Pilot Observational Study

Near-Infrared Cerebrovascular Reactivity for Monitoring Cerebral Autoregulation and Predicting Outcomes in Moderate to Severe Traumatic Brain Injury: Proposal for a Pilot Observational Study

These indices have been validated in experimental animal models of cerebral autoregulation, with clinical data supporting moderate associations with “gold standard” invasive measures of cerebrovascular reactivity via rough estimates [2,5-7]. However, further investigation into the value of NIRS-based cerebrovascular indices is required. Several aspects of NIRS cerebrovascular reactivity indices require clarification before widespread clinical application.
