This study was approved by the ethics committee of Shimane University Hospital (IRB 475). The background populations were inpatients admitted for unilateral decompressive craniectomy (DC), which prevents brain herniation due to acute intracranial hypertension, at our institution between 2006 and 2010. In this study, seven subjects underwent transcutaneous measurements of viscoelastic properties through cranial defects by a tactile resonance sensor and CT scans within three days before cranioplasty, which was most often done around one month after DC. Their transcutaneous viscoelastic properties via the cranial defects were determined under normal conditions. 

This study received financial support from the alumni society of Shimane University Faculty of Medicine. 

We would like to thank Ms. F. Ozoe (Shimane University) for helpfiil advice on molecular biological experiments. This study was supported in part by a grant (to H.O.) from Heart Co. Ltd., J an.
