Abstract

PURPOSE: To evaluate magnetic resonance (MR) imaging-based quantitative phase-contrast cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) velocity imaging for prediction of successful shunting in patients with normal-pressure hydrocephalus (NPH). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Eighteen patients (mean age, 73 years) with NPH underwent routine MR imaging and CSF velocity MR imaging before ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunting. The calculated CSF stroke volume and the aqueductal CSF flow void score were compared with the surgical results. RESULTS: All 12 patients with CSF stroke volumes greater than 42 microL responded favorably to CSF shunting. Of the six patients with stroke volumes of 42 microL or less, three improved with shunting while three did not. The relationship between CSF stroke volume greater than 42 microL and favorable response to VP shunting was statistically significant (P < .05). There was no statistically significant relationship between aqueductal CSF flow void score and responsiveness to shunting. CONCLUSION: CSF velocity MR imaging is useful in the selection of patients with NPH to undergo shunt formation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
