A transcranial scanning device and method of use is disclosed. The transcranial scanning device is for identifying a neurologic-injury-mechanism and comprises a sensing wand comprising a transducer that produces and receives sound waves. The sensing wand is passed over a head of a patent with cerebral malaria, and sound waves reflect off of blood cells in blood vessels in the head of the patient creating an output sound wave responsive to a blood flow of the patient. The output sound wave is received by the transducer. An output screen coupled to the sensing wand, displays in real time an output waveform corresponding to the output sound wave, wherein the output waveform is indicative of one or more symptoms of cerebral malaria, and wherein said symptoms identify one or more neurologic-injury-mechanism occurring within the patient.
