Abstract

Brain midline shift (MLS) is a life-threatening condition that requires urgent diagnosis and treatment [ 1 ]. Bedside MLS assessment with sonography has been proposed as a valuable method in stroke patients [ 2 ]. We aimed to validate this method in neurocritical care patients by comparing it with the brain CT gold standard method.
