Background The use of MR cisternography with intrathecal administration of gadolinium-
based contrast agents (GBCAs) is limited by a lack of understanding of the relationship …

Ever since gadolinium was found to deposit in the brain of patients with normal kidney
function by Kanda et al. in 2014, several studies have been conducted to evaluate its effect …

Purpose A possible pathway behind gadolinium retention in brain is leakage of contrast
agents from blood to cerebrospinal fluid and entry into brain along perivascular (glymphatic) …

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is a condition that results from leakage of
cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the spine, and which typically presents with debilitating …

Computed tomography (CT) technology has rapidly evolved since its introduction in the
1970s. It is a highly important diagnostic tool for clinicians as demonstrated by the significant …

Skull base cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks occur when there is an abnormal communication
between the subarachnoid space and an air space in the paranasal sinuses, nasal cavity …

BACKGROUND. An association is recognized between linear gadolinium-based contrast
agents (GBCAs) and intracranial gadolinium retention in children. The relation between …

Contrast agents (CAs) used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are produced by
chelating the metal gadolinium (Gd) with organic ligand molecules to form stable complexes …

Objectives: In the present study, the authors presented the intrathecal gadolinium enhanced
MR-myelography findings of patients with spontaneous intracranial hypotension. Materials …

Skull base cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks occur when there is an abnormal communication
between the subarachnoid space and an adjacent air space in the paranasal sinuses …
