Fiber optic intracranial pressure sensors are devices that use light transmission through thin, flexible fibers to measure pressure inside the skull. This review gives a com-parative overview of the established technologies and provides an outlook on fiber-optic sensors (FOS) with potential use in future intracranial moni-toring applications. Neurophysiological parameters recorded by bioelectrical signals include intracranial pressure (ICP). Normal ICP values are between 10-15 mmHg in adults, but volume increases in brain tissue, cerebrospinal fluid, and intracranial blood can increase the pressure due the non-expanding nature of the skull, and if left untreated, may result in irreversible brain damage or death. Fiber Optic Intracranial Pressure Sensor by Application (Intracranial Mass Lesions, Head Injury, Cerebral Hypoxia, Other), by Types (Driven By Fiber Bragg grating, Driven By Fabry‑Perot Interferometer, Driven By Surface Plasmon Resonance Effect), by North America (United States, Canada, Mexico), by. We provide leading-edge fiber optic development capabilities and advanced manufacturing experience to support high-volume production of complex fiber optic products for the medical device market. Intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring is vital for diagnosing and managing brain injuries, tumors, and other neurological conditions.
