Treatable dementia
There is a disease called NPH, Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus,
which is easily misdiagnosed as dementia, Parkinson's or
Alzheimer's. NPH can be treated by inserting a shunt and is
therefore called "treatable dementia".
The LIKVOR CELDA® SYSTEM
measures the dynamics of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) system and
the results is used to diagnose NPH. The LIKVOR CELDA®
SYSTEM is successfully used for investigating shunt function in
patients with existing shunts.
