Brain abscess is a focal area of necrosis, which may occur after neurosurgical procedures. Transcranial color-coded duplex sonography (TCCS) is a valuable tool of monitoring in the intensive care unit (ICU), providing information in B-mode, color and pulsed wave Doppler mode. We describe the case of a critically ill patient with brain abscess diagnosed by TCCS.
脑脓肿是一种局灶性坏死区域，可能发生在神经外科手术后。经颅彩色双功能超声（TCCS）是重症监护病房（ICU）监测的有价值的工具，可提供 B 型、彩色和脉冲波多普勒模式的信息。我们描述了一例经 TCCS 诊断的脑脓肿重症患者的病例。
