Abstract

Intercranial aneurysm present an especially serious clinical problem, since their rupture generally results in death or permanent brain damage. Recent work, conducted by the authors, indicated that this anomaly can be detected using spectral signature analysis. A low-cost turnkey noninvasive aneurysm-detection system is being tested for this purpose. Using polarity-coincident noise-added one-bit correlators, aneurysms have been successfully detected.
