A dynamic decubitus CT myelography imaging protocol that includes an early and delayed phase, likely increases the sensitivity for CSF-venous fistula detection. Further studies are needed to ascertain the optimal timing and technique for CSF-venous fistula visualization on dynamic decubitus CT myelography and its impact on patient outcomes.
