Comparison of CSF Distribution between Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus and Alzheimer Disease

摘要

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: CSF volumes in the basal cistern and Sylvian fissure are increased in both idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus and Alzheimer disease, though the differences in these volumes in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus and Alzheimer disease have not been well-described. Using CSF segmentation and volume quantification, we compared the distribution of CSF in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus and Alzheimer disease.
