Intracranial hypotension: the nonspecific nature of MRI findings

O C Bruera et al. Headache. 2000 Nov-Dec.

Abstract

We present three patients who complained of postural headache related to different types of intracranial hypotension: spontaneous or primary, and secondary, but presenting the same findings on brain magnetic resonance imaging. Diffuse pachymeningeal gadolinium enhancement supports the belief that the enhancement is a nonspecific meningeal reaction to low pressure.
