Alteration of Venous Drainage Route in Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus and Normal Aging

Alteration of Venous Drainage Route in Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus and Normal Aging

Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a highly prevalent condition in the elderly population; however, the underlying pathophysiology in relation to the aging process remains unclear. To investigate the effect of removal of cerebrospinal fluid by lumbar “tap test” on the cerebral circul...
