Ultrasound showing an anechoic collection with interspersed echogenic foci (blue arrows ‐ gas bubbles) proximal to the hyperechoic bone flap (red asterisk; post‐decompressive craniectomy). Serratia marcescens was isolated from the collected fluid. Bedside ultrasound can be a reliable and effective tool to aid in the diagnosis of bone flap infections.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
