A transducer system is described which measures simultaneously the pressure and displacement as the transducer is inserted into the intracranial system. The measurements are made in vivo and with the dura arachnoid membranes intact. The short-time mechanical response of the system as well as the time-dependent relaxation and creep properties can be determined.
