Quantitative Evaluation of Normal Aqueductal Cerebrospinal Fluid Flow Using Phase ‐Contrast Cine MRI According to Age and Sex

Conclusion: Normal aqueductal CSF flow parameters evaluated with PCC‐MRI don't show a significant difference by age and sex. We have achieved the lower and upper values of these parameters would be useful in future clinical studies. The size of aqueductal area may also be explained by atrophy‐dependent ventricular system dilatation in the elderly. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
