Risk estimation for idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus: development and validation of a brain morphometry-based nomogram.

• The nomogram with MRI findings (high-convexity tightness, callosal angle, and normalized lateral ventricle volume) helped in predicting the probability of idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus. • The nomogram may facilitate the prediction of idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus and consequently avoid unnecessary invasive procedures such as the cerebrospinal fluid tap test, drainage test, and cerebrospinal fluid shunt surgery.
