It's good to see more attention being paid to normal pressure hydrocephalus - a condition that is frequently misdiagnosed but that, with the right diagnosis, can be effectively treated. At X-Pressure, our focus is on advancing diagnostic tools to help NPH patients receive timely care and restore their quality of life. Every step toward greater awareness makes a difference.
