About this trial

This research protocol focuses on the pre- and post-operative evaluation of ICP using non-invasive methods, particularly in the context of surgery for brain tumor removal. By utilizing ocular ultrasound to measure ONSD and ONSD/ETD ratios, this study hypothesizes that the utility of these parameters in monitoring ICP pre- and post-operative periods could be effective.
