Decubitus CT Myelography for Detecting Subtle CSF Leaks in Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension.
Peter G KranzL GrayTimothy J AmrheinPublished in: AJNR. American journal of neuroradiology (2019)
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension is caused by spinal CSF leaks, but the site of the leak is not always detected on spinal imaging. We report on the additional value of decubitus positioning during CT myelography in enhancing the detection of subtle leaks.
