Intracranial Hematoma Detection by Near Infrared Spectroscopy in a Helicopter Emergency Medical Service: Practical Experience

Figure 3

The Infrascanner 2000 was implemented in a Dutch helicopter emergency medical service (HEMS). For safety reasons, the device was tested prior to implementation for possible interference with existing on-board medical equipment, electronics, and avionics of the helicopter (Eurocopter EC-135, Airbus industries) both on ground and during flight.
