Intrathecal preservative-free normal saline challenge magnetic resonance myelography for the identification of cerebrospinal fluid leaks in spontaneous intracranial hypotension

摘要

OBJECT A CSF leak can be difficult to locate in patients who present with spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH); The purpose of this case series was to describe the authors' experience with intrathecal preservative-free normal saline challenge coupled with contrast-enhanced MR myelography (CEMRM), which was used to provoke and detect a CSF leakage site in patients with SIH.
