University of Oklahoma Biomedical Engineering Researcher Ready to Transform TBI Surgery
University of Oklahoma, Gallogly College of EngineeringPatients who suffer a severe traumatic brain injury must undergo two surgeries: one to remove a part of the skull to allow the brain to swell and another surgery to replace the missing bone after brain swelling subsides. University of Oklahoma biomedical engineering researcher Michael Detamore and his team may have found a way to reduce the number of surgeries to just one.
