Details and patient eligibility

About

This research will enhance our knowledge and understanding of Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) circulation around the Central Nervous System (CNS) (brain and spinal cord).

The main objective is to obtain flow velocities using Phase Contrast (PC) MRI over the entire subarachnoid space (SAS). This will enable us to develop and validate a numerical model of the SAS.
