Clinical experience with automatic midline echoencephalography: cooperative study of three neurosurgical clinics.
Computerized midline echoencephalography was developed in order to make the determination of the midline more objective. In a group study involving the neurosurgical clinics in Berlin, Erlangen, and Munich, a total of 1,889 patients with various intracranial diseases was examined by this method.
