Infrascanner is a portable device initially designed to detect intracranial hemorrhage in battlefield traumas. Infrascanner uses near infrared spectroscopy to measure cerebral blood flow non-invasively. This is achieved by putting the device against the scalp in 4 different areas (frontal, temporal, parietal, occipital) on the left and right side and by comparing both sides.This allows for the detection of intracranial hemorrhages with a volume upwards of 3.5ml and to a depth of 2.5cm. However, little is known about the influence of other intracranial conditions that could confound the measurements of the Infrascanner (e.g. ischemic stroke, brain surgery, brain tumors,...).~Therefore, the investigators prospectively want to use the Infrascanner in patients with ischemic stroke, patients with brain surgery, patients with brain tumors, patients with intracranial hemorrhage and patients with a normal CT scan of the brain as part of a diagnostic work-up after head trauma or headache to determine the positive and negative predictive value of the Infrascanner in these different settings.
